Join Liverpool Cathedral for an event in a series celebrating Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and his work.
As part of the centenary celebrations since its consecration in 1924, Liverpool Cathedral will host a series of events honouring the architectural legacy of Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, and the neo-gothic building that is his legacy to the city of Liverpool.
Join Liverpool Cathedral for a discussion on the design and building of the Cathedral and how it fits into the context of 20th century Liverpool and the urban environment. The panel of experts considers the challenges of maintaining and caring for this vast building and how the legacy of Gilbert Scott is preserved today.
Speakers
- Dr Ataa Alsalloum, Senior Lecturer in Architecture and Urban Heritage at the Liverpool School of Architecture
- Cathedral Architect Mike Darwell
- Architectural Historian Joseph Sharples
The discussion will be moderated by Dominic Wilkinson, Principal Lecturer in Architecture, Art & Design, Liverpool John Moores University.
This event is organised in partnership with RIBA North and the Liverpool Architecture Society. Thank you to The Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art for supporting this event.
Additional educational activities are planned at Liverpool Cathedral during the October half term. For more information, visit the Liverpool Cathedral website.
