One of the most eagerly awaited events of Liveprool's European Capital of Culture celebrations is now live!  125, two meter tall replicas of Taro Chiezo's iconic SuperLambBanana sculpture have been painted, decorated and adorned by local artists, schools and community groups to create a free to view open air public art spectacular.  

Some of the SuperLambBananas will be auctioned off at a spectacular event in St George's Hall in September, to benefit the Lord Mayor's Appeal, of which IMAGINE is one of the charities.  One of the sculptures is located at Alder Hey Children's Hospital - come and see it in our restaurant!  For more information please click here.

Yoko Ono helped us launch the charity in 2005 through a campaign to get celebrities showing their support for Europe's largest children's hospital by wearing an IMAGINE t-shirt and taking a snap of themselves. It's a unique campaign in that the stars are taking snaps of themselves instead of posing for a famous photographer. Yoko started off the initiative by allowing us to use a very famous photo of John by Bob Gruen and superimpose an IMAGINE t-shirt on him. Bob Gruen also gave his permission as long as we gave him a t-shirt!! 

All the photos are displayed in the hospital corridor and forms a major talking point among our young patients and their families.  Follow the link to get a taste for who has 'put themselves in the picture'.

Special thanks to USP Creative  for donating their considerable time and creativity to come up with this great campaign!
