RESONANCES
OBJECTS, LIVES AND STORIES OF LIVERPOOL
PERMANENT EXHIBITION
Objects shape who we are, the people we engage with, our attachment to place, our values and ideas.
Resonances takes you on a journey to discover Liverpool’s heritage through its collection of donated objects, unifying a diversity as an eclectic assembly of artefacts and oral histories.
We can only speculate about the personal meanings and significance an object holds for an individual or family; donors provide a trace of their story as a gift for future generations.
Resonances combines the collection within six themes:
- Home
- Good times
- Hard times
- Community
- Children
- Work
Each theme explores Liverpool’s past, through people and places that shaped Liverpool’s history, culture, social and economic life.
