Learn how to build a canvas frame and stretch your canvas with one of our technicians

Do you want to become an art technician for the morning?

Our Art Handling team are essential to the functioning of our gallery – using different tools to build walls and display furniture, and install art. They also played a crucial role in RESOLVE Collective’s redistribution project, working with the artists to plan and build spatial solutions in different community spaces around Liverpool. Now you have an opportunity to take part in a DIY project with them. With the supervision of our team, you'll be able to try out some of the tools our team use on a daily basis.

Tate Liverpool is temporarily located at RIBA North, Mann Island, a short distance (425m) along Liverpool’s iconic waterfront. There is step free access to the main entrance. There is a lift to the first floor gallery, or alternatively you can take the stairs.

  • Toilets are located on the first floor
  • The nearest Changing Places toilet is located at the Museum of Liverpool
  • Ear defenders are available to borrow. Please ask a Visitor Engagement Assistant

Additional seating is also available. Please ask a member of staff if you require assistance.
