Liverpool Institute for Boys
The Liverpool Institute for Boys was founded in 1825, but occupied other premises while the money was found to build a dedicated building. The Institute was first known as the Liverpool Mechanics? School of Arts. In 1832 the name was shortened to the Liverpool Mechanics? Institution. Its primary purpose was to provide educational opportunities, mainly through evening classes for working men. Lectures were also provided which were of wide interest covering topics ranging from Arctic exploration to Shakespeare and philosophy. Luminaries like Charles Dickens and Ralph Waldo Emerson delivered talks and readings.
