Promoting and Providing Access to the Arts

FREE Home Archiving Workshops
Heritage Activities

Learn how to safeguard your precious memories and family treasures at our FREE Home Archiving Workshops. These interactive sessions provide expert guidance on safely preserving your personal heirlooms, photographs, documents, and artifacts, in partnership with Liverpool Central Library Liverpool Libraries and Information Services

The workshop advice comes from an expert archivist. You will leave equipped with skills and knowledge to keep your heritage safe for generations to come and even take-home materials to get you started on your first safe archive.

Participants will learn practical, hands-on techniques using materials such as acid-free folders and specialist preservation methods.

We particularly encourage participation from underrepresented communities, including racial minorities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and people with disabilities, to help uncover and protect the diverse heritage of Liverpool.

Disclaimer: We are unable to give direct advice of genealogy or accept donations to the Liverpool Records Archive.

Kindly supported, by The National Lottery Heritage Fund thanks to money raised by National Lottery players to offer free heritage activity in connection with the ‘Lights Up on Liverpool’ exhibition currently on display at Liverpool Central Library which launched in November 2024.

There are no more dates remaining for this workshop. Sign up for our newsletter to get a heads-up about new ArtsGroupie events and workshops.
