Take a stroll down to Liverpool’s Albert Dock for a special early Valentine’s treat this Sunday 11th February.

Tate Liverpool are offering the chance to enjoy a private view of Tracey Emin and William Blake in Focus, sandwiched between a glass of Prosecco and a locally-sourced three-course dinner in the Tate café.

The pair of artists overlap in their interest in liberalism and sexual freedoms, but if you are hoping to make a success of the evening, it’s probably best that you don’t follow Emin’s lead when it comes to making your bed.
