artsandcraftsv

Studio Gallery Solihull! We are setting up a collective of 9 artists from Solihull!

We have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity of using a large shop unit in the Touchwood shopping centre right in the heart of Solihull Town Centre!

We will be there to talk to visitors and showcase our artwork which will be available to purchase. We have studio space too so some of us will be busy creating too.

I’ll let you know how we’re getting on preparing the unit as we go along! The excitement is growing for the new Studio Gallery Solihull!

Public Art and It’s Benefits

artsandcraftsv

Having visited the newly erected Birmingham Light external exhibition in Victoria Square on Tuesday in central Birmingham, and seen the fantastic array of artists work (Pear) – I hope that more councils will see and understand the many benefits of involving artists to create artwork that brightens up large public areas!

I relaxed in the seating areas and soaked up the atmosphere. I witnessed visitors slowing down, pausing, enjoying the newly found breathing space in the busy business area of the Second City in England. The range of 2D artwork providing something appealing to everyone.

Thanks to Central BID , and Colmore BID, together with Ruth Millington, for their funding and vision. I hope other councils will take your lead.

Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council is hosting Surreal Solihull from 6 March to 30 May in central Solihull town when it will be moved to Shirley, finally coming to rest in Chelmsley Wood by the end of the year.
