🔴Liverpool Art Fair 2024 is now closed!🔴 We have been informed by Merseyside Police that for the safety of the staff, building and visitors that we should close this weekend and so Liverpool Art Fair's final weekend will not be going ahead.

How talented is dot-art Artist Joseph Venning?!🌙 You may have visited the 'Beyond Van Gogh' experience at the Exhibition Centre Liverpool over the summer as saw Joe working on a mural in ode to Van Gogh. We wanted to add an element of live painting for visitors before and after their immersive experience. Originally a temporary project, the Exhibition Centre has now found a home for the mural up on the first floor. See more of our 'Murals' work here - dot-art.co.uk/murals/ @yourecl @beyondvangoghuk

📢For the safety of our visitors, staff and the Liverpool Art Fair artworks we have made the decision with the Royal Liver Building team to close our doors this weekend. We thank you for your understanding. Back open on Tuesday 13th August We look forward to seeing you then!
