Join us for a free, drop-in family event with Liverpool Biennial 2025 Children's Guide creator Catherine Haines and Storybarn.

Step into a world of imagination at this immersive storytelling session celebrating ‘Where the Jellyfish Dance and the Sandstone Whispers’, a storybook by Catherine Haines, Alex Bishop and Kohenoor Kamal created as part of Liverpool Biennial.

Families are invited to join Sammy the Seagull, a curious bird exploring his home city of Liverpool. Through playful storytelling, Sammy’s journey will come to life with interactive props created by artists from Blue Room, the Bluecoat’s inclusive arts programme.

You will also be able to take home a free copy of the illustrated book, which includes activities, and can even add your own voice to the story!

 

Location:

Bluecoat, Gallery 2

Time:

Saturday 6 September 2025, 11am – 3.30pm.

Each storytelling session will last approximately 30 minutes.
