An exhibition of artworks and artefacts by Far East prisoners of war (FEPOW) revealing their conditions in captivity but also their spirit and resourcefulness. Their captors forbid the keeping of any records so the artworks were made secretly and most have never been displayed before.
Admission to all galleries, exhibitions and most activities is free.
Enter the VG&M for the first time and you'll find a collection of art and objects so varied and exciting you'll wonder why you've never noticed us before amongst all the Liverpool museums.
Witness nightmares in a bottle, a Victorian dental surgery, a fine art collection and an archaeological dig. We told you it was varied.
