St George’s Hall

6th - 28th February

St George’s Hall Charitable Trust is proud to host this special exhibition, showcasing maquettes of a statue dedicated to Mary Seacole (1805–1881), the pioneering nurse, healer, and humanitarian whose courage and compassion saved countless lives.

Mary Seacole’s story is one of resilience and service. Born in Jamaica, she overcame prejudice to bring her skills to the battlefields of the Crimean War, where she became known as “Mother Seacole” to soldiers in need. Her legacy continues to inspire generations, reminding us of the power of care, determination, and humanity.

This exhibition invites you to explore the artistic journey behind the creation of a permanent marble statue of Mary Seacole, planned for installation in the Great Hall of St George’s Hall. The maquettes on display represent the early stages of this monumental tribute; a vision of how Liverpool will honour her enduring contribution to history.

Free and open to the public, visitors are welcome from 6th to 28th February,  Monday to Saturday, from 9:30am to 4:30pm.

St George’s Hall

Situated opposite Lime Street station, St George’s Hall provides a magnificent welcome to Liverpool, reflecting the pride and passion of the Victorians who built this landmark venue.

The Hall is one of the finest examples of a neoclassical building in the world and stands majestically over the city skyline.

St George’s Hall opened in 1854 and is an outstanding expression of the confidence and ambition the Victorians had for their city, their delight in profiling their achievements is particularly personified by the stunning architecture of the Concert Room and the grandeur of the Great Hall. Those who designed, built and funded this extraordinary building, sought deliberately to lift the human heart beyond the here and now, beyond the everyday and the ordinary.

The Hall can rightly claim to be the emotional heart of the region; it has been the spontaneous gathering place for the people of Liverpool in times of celebration, vigils, and commemorations. Important moments happen here from commemorative city gatherings following the deaths of the Beatles, John Lennon and George Harrison, to historic homecomings for Liverpool FC and Everton FC following Cup Final victories. St George’s Hall also hosted the Peoples’ Opening of Liverpool’s European Capital of Culture celebrations in 2008, when Ringo Starr played from the roof of the building to over 50,000 people.

Must-See Month. Must-see, can’t-miss, the incredible events and offers from the 13th February – 13th March.
