Renting an apartment in Liverpool gives you great choices of places to visit.
It may be a little known fact that Liverpool has more museums and art galleries than any other city in the country, truly making it “The Capital of Culture”! The largest gallery of contemporary art outside London, Tate Liverpool, showcasing the works of twentieth century artists, is a centre of national importance.
Renting our apartment in Liverpool gives you easy access.
Situated in Albert Dock and opening in 1988, with an average attendance of around six hundred thousand visitors each year, the gallery has played host to over 150 exhibitions and collections, including “Summer of Love: Art of the Psychedelic Era” and “Contemporary Art from China”, as well as showcasing examples of work by Gustav Klimt – the first ever such exhibition in the UK.
The building’s redevelopment began ten years later, in 1998, increasing its range of activities and integrating new technologies. Tate Liverpool places great emphasis on hands-on participation, holding seminars and workshops for adults and children alike.
And it doesn’t end there. The gallery continues to work with other cultural organisations in bringing contemporary art to not only the people who live in and around the city, but also to the thousands of visitors to Liverpool each year. In 2007, the Tate hosted the Turner Prize, a suitable introduction to Liverpool’s year as “European Capital of Culture”.
On the last Thursday of every month, the Tate opens late, offering food, music, drink and entertainment, to enhance your enjoyment of the collections.
