Tea, coffee and sugar were once expensive commodities that, upon their arrival on ships, were stored within the Maritime building – originally a bonded warehouse. Come to this craft session and create artworks to take away, inspired by the history of the docks and these once valuable commodities. Enjoy a performance from Liverpool Signing Choir and find refreshments in the 4th floor restaurant, the Maritime Dining Room for hungry revellers of all ages, along with a shop selling lots of maritime-themed gifts and treats.
The Liverpool Signing Choir perform a selection of songs reflecting the passage of time at the docks and in the city 18:30 – 19:15.
Craft session suitable for 5+
