As Cultural Producers, working with and supporting local artists and organisations, we have witnessed the power of culture in positively transforming people's relationship to their city and to each other... #CultureMatters (2/4) [Photo Katja Ogrin]

I think anyone who knows me knows how passionate I am about working with light, & specifically about making a city centre light festival happen. I’m so excited that we Outdoor Places Unusual Spaces are working with ColmoreBID & Alex Nicholson-Evans to bring this beautiful installation to #Birmingham ✨

See you tonight, #birmingham 🩷

Our Beating Heart 💗 What a great first night it’s been! #LoveBirmingham

Beautiful first night of Light is Coming ✨ the space felt completely transformed by light. I spoke to one person who commented on how lovely it was to see people - and specifically children - dancing and playing in a space usually just used by passing commuters. 📸 Verity M

It was a vibe - wonderful seeing everybody dancing and having fun at #silentdisco #snowhill #lovebirmingham ✨ 🪩 #lightiscoming sparkle 💖 #ourbeatingheart 🪩 ✨ spreading the love and joy! Alex Nicholson-Evans Bex Phillips Outdoor Places Unusual Spaces ColmoreBID #brum #birmingham

Back to work today after a gorgeous time cycling rural Portugal 🚴🏻 Stunning forest, coastal + countryside routes which took us far off the beaten track. A few very testing days which incl steep climbs + neverending windy straight paths (maybe worse than hills?!) ☀️ 🍷 🇵🇹

I'm so, so proud of this project - a very beautiful collaboration with Outdoor Places Unusual Spaces and the National Memorial Arboretum working with Jo Tyler Ms_TX on the audio piece. It will be at the Arboretum for the rest of August... #LookUp

A bit of LIGHT and colour looks good on you, #Birmingham ✨

Last month I visited some of the 25 (!) #Paris2024 fanzones, a few fave things- 🔹Parc de la Villette housing 15 festival sites hosted by participating countries 🔹visual identity applied beautifully across all user touch points, city wide 🔹pop up cycle hubs, manned & FULL😍
