Go Penguins - 22 November 2009 - 10 January 2010 LiverpoolAcross the region, behind closed doors, an invasion was being planned. Businesses, artists and communities knew the secret – even the children were getting ready. Then, one by one, they came. A street corner here, a shopping centre there, until the people awoke to find them throughout Liverpool, St. Helens and the Wirral - over 200 clever and colorful penguins with a story to tell...
Go Penguins is a public art explosion of unrivalled proportions. Over 200 individual works of art will adorn and animate Merseyside’s streets throughout Christmas and New Year, bringing a very special brand of festive sparkle to the holiday season. Commissioned by Liverpool City Council for their Year of the Environment, Go Penguins is the signature event of the city’s festive programme, A Winter’s Trail. Many of the penguins have something to say about climate change – simple, easy to follow hints on how we might all be a little bit greener. Many others are just stunning to look at - all of them are fun!
Grab your family and friends and have fun exploring the Go Penguins trail before they waddle away on 10 January!
