Lulu Quinn wants to save our seas. But she needs your help to send out her SOS message and spark some positive environmental change.

Her giant 26ft (8m) blue and green bottle is a new commission that will appear at Marine Point, where you can add your own environmental pledge or message.

Created from plastic bottles which come from a use once and throwaway culture, the sculpture includes messages written by local schoolchildren inspired by the artist’s very timely focus on plastic pollution.

The bottle will float into its new home on Marine Lake on Saturday evening. Join us for the lighting ceremony, where it will be illuminated before the sun sets with the help of beautiful water ballerinas and a real-life mermaid.

As part of this commission, a twin bottle has been created which you can visit in Liverpool at Salthouse Dock, before it embarks on its own journey to Bordeaux aboard the Tall Ship La Malouine. Wirral’s bottle will remain in place on Marine Lake until a later date.

When: Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday
Where: Marine Point & Marine Lake, New Brighton
Time: From Friday afternoon. Lighting ceremony: Saturday 26 May, 6.30pm onwards

EVENT DATE: Friday 25th May onwards. Lighting ceremony: Saturday 26th May, 6.30pm

Event Date: Friday 25th May 2018 - Monday 28th May 2018
