Open Studios at The Old Print Works – 19th and 20th September
The Old Print Works, Balsall Heath, invites you to our OPEN STUDIOS event on Saturday 19th & Sunday 20th September 2020, 11am-4pm.
We would like to thank everyone for bearing with us during these trying times. Come and see what we’ve been up to during lockdown and celebrate the fantastic local artists, makers and independent organisations that we have in our building!
The GAP Arts Project will be showing Self, Isolated, a group exhibition of self-portraits created during the coronavirus lockdown, and The MIX Cafe will be serving refreshments to their outdoor tables.
The event will coincide with the last weekend of Birmingham Heritage Week – so be sure to visit the Balsall Heath Local History Society display.
