Make CIC is inviting residents of Vauxhall and the Ten Streets district to be part of a project inspired by Pete McGovern’s iconic song In My Liverpool Home.Join Ashleigh Nugent to share stories around place and help write new lyrics for the song with a hip-hop twist.
Commissioned by Liverpool City Council’s Culture Liverpool, In My Liverpool Home will celebrate the rich heritage, creativity and diversity of Liverpool’s North Docks. The project takes inspiration from the area’s history as a place shaped by immigration, industry and community, as well as McGovern’s folk song celebrating his home city.
Working with residents, schools, youth organisations and cultural partners, Make CIC will collect oral histories, create new musical and spoken-word responses, and co-design a landmark public artwork on Regent Street.
The project is part of a wider Culture Liverpool initiative called Home: A Celebration of Place, designed to recognise and showcase the unique stories, identities, and achievements of Liverpool’s neighbourhoods through community-led arts and culture.
