Desperately sad news.
Museums are treasure houses of objects and knowledge, founts of inspiration for future generations, places of wonder - and research. Places that invite us to see ourselves in a deep, wide context.
Our society and culture is impoverished if we lose them.

Spotted! 'This Book Will Make You An Artist' Nosy Crow in the WINDOW Midlands Arts Centre (MAC) 🎨✨️

Birmingham City Council have opened the consultation on the fate of the Library Service today, until 17th July. Really important that people respond with their views. Once our community libraries are lost, they’re lost for good. #savebirmingham

So lovely having my kids visit Midlands Arts Centre (MAC) today.

They are so used to mummy working in amazing places and know the museums of Birmingham very well!

They declared it not quite as good as thinktankmuseum but still ‘pretty cool’. High praise indeed! 🤣

Fantastic Improv Showcase from our Beginners Improv class Midlands Arts Centre (MAC) tonight.

To think they had never tried it until 12 weeks ago! What talented tutors from Box Of Frogs 🐸

So sad to hear that Mar Dixon ☕️🎭🗿🏛❤️ has passed away. She. Will be sadly missed by the museum community. Mar always bought energy, enthusiasm and wit to the projects she worked on and was a joy to be with. RIP Mar Dixon ☕️🎭🗿🏛❤️

Spring is springing all over the place! Midlands Arts Centre (MAC) on a Saturday is such a vibe!

Love meeting our Artist Tutors and participants on courses, including a chap who smashed some pots he wasn’t happy with 😮 Apparently this is totally normal and means the clay can be reused!

This is absolutely massive news. Not only is the birthplace of heavy metal (where Black Sabbath played their first gig) now protected, but it gives us hope that The Electric is soon to follow. A true victory for Brum's cultural heritage.

We need to save The Electric. We urge all to sign this petition: change.org/p/designate-bi…

We're so excited to see you all at our Arts Market tomorrow!

❤️ The best makers from Brum and beyond are ready to bring you a range of handcrafted items, including ceramics, glass, paintings, prints, textiles and much more.

I love Birmingham, it’s my home, but it’s heartbreaking to see what’s happening to our city right now. The arts and culture scene has been heavily impacted. It’s the very essence of what makes Birmingham special and we’re slowly watching it all being taken away.

Ending my first week in the arts world with a visit to Ikon where this antique printing press made me feel right at home 😊

I won’t pretend to always love contemporary art but when artists draw on heritage as inspiration 👌🏽

Great to see Haseebah Ali as well!

This year Flatpack Festival will take place without the Electric as a venue, for the first time in 18 years. The Markwick family who run the cinema have made the difficult decision to close down this week.
