For the first 12 days of Liverpool Biennial, Metal has commissioned 12 artists to each host a Lunch at Cafe Valise, Metal’s pop up café at Edge Hill Station. Included in the group of creative practitioners who will prepare and host lunch as well stimulate conversation are writer and journalist, Yasmin Alibhai Brown, novelist Rosie Thomas, stand-up comedian Shaista Aziz and choreographer Fearghus Ó Conchúir.
The event starts each day on the 12.01pm Northern Rail train to Edge Hill Station from Lime Street in the centre of Liverpool. On arrival at Edge Hill there will be an opportunity to look around the historic building, chat to the guest artists as they prepare lunch or browse through our specially collated library of books and films on the Biennial theme of ‘the unexpected guest’ before sitting down to lunch with other visitors.
These lunch events are FREE but booking is essential. 20 places each day.
