Design your own shipping poster!

If the posters in the Maritime Museum’s Sail Away exhibition | have inspired you then it’s your turn to get creative! Design your own shipping poster and send it to the Museum for our online gallery. Your design could win a prize!

You can use any method you want to create your poster – draw it with good old pencil and paper, paint it, make a collage, design it on your computer, or use an app on your smartphone. Maybe go and see one of the many cruise liners that are visiting Liverpool this year |  for inspiration – and remember to pop in to see the exhibition when you do!

If you make your poster in the ‘real world’ then take a photo of it or scan it, then send your design to the Maritime Museum by one of these methods by Tuesday 30 September 2014:

  • Tweet it to @MerseyMaritime, with the hashtag #SailAway

  • Add your design to our Sail Away poster group on Flickr
  • Add it straight to our online gallery using our uploader

  • A framed print, signed by the Liverpool Cruise Terminal photographer
