Liverpool’s East and South East Asian communities have played a significant role in the city’s history. Our Chinese community is the oldest in Europe.
Join us for a free, drop-in workshop, organised by Emily Beswick, to explore this important history through photographs. Take part in free creative activities including collage making.
If you're a member of an ESEA community, bring along your family photographs or albums and share them and their stories. You can also create a copy of your photograph to stick on our photograph wall. You'll also discover archival photographs of Liverpool’s Chinese community, which we'll have on display. Light refreshments will be available.
Emily is a PhD student at the University of Liverpool and Tate Liverpool. This workshop is part of her research on photographs of the Chinese community in Liverpool.
