Further information
The Museum of Liverpool Life closed its doors on 4 June 2006. We are currently building a brand new Museum of Liverpool, which is expected to open in 2010/11.
If you have an unusual object that you would like us to see, or if you would like to donate somethng to the collections, our curators are still running a weekly object surgery service from the Merseyside Maritime Museum.
There are still lots of museums and galleries to visit in Liverpool and the surrounding area. In the Albert Dock you can go to the Merseyside Maritime Museum and the International Slavery Museum, which are both situated in the same building, a short walk from where the Museum of Liverpool Life used to be.
On William Brown Street in the city centre you can find two popular atrractions, World Museum Liverpool and the Walker Art Gallery. Nearby is the National Conservation Centre.
Two major exhibitions currently feature a lot of the Museum of Liverpool's collections:
Admission to all the National Museums Liverpool venues is FREE. All exhibitions, events and activities at National Museums Liverpool are also FREE.

Please note that major roadworks are currently taking place in the Albert Dock area. The northbound carriageway of Strand Street will be reduced from 3 lanes to 2 lanes for some time, and other routes may also be affected during this time.
