Liverpool Art Month

‘The Liverpool Art Month, showcasing the cities artists during the Liverpool Art Prize exhibition’

The Liverpool Art Prize is a competition of contemporary art, which was inspired by the Turner Prize and began in 2008. It is open to all professional artists based or born in the Liverpool City Region or in the surrounding boroughs of Liverpool, Wirral, St Helens, Knowsley, Halton and Sefton. Now in its fifth year, The Liverpool Art Prize exhibition takes place at Metal Liverpool.

This year, some of Liverpool’s studio groups and galleries have come together to develop Liverpool Art Month. This will take the form of an exciting programme of events, exhibitions and workshops for Liverpool during the month of May 2012. This is the perfect chance to discover several local artists and their working environment throughout a series of interconnected happenings and performances. Visitors can also buy some artworks at affordable prices.

By backing our project, not only do you receive a huge thank you and certain special edition memorabilia of the project, but you also get the satisfaction of knowing that you have helped to support what promises to be a wide programme of events to showcase the talent of artists based in Liverpool for all to enjoy.
