Win an urban art weekend (in Birmingham)
2008 December 21
I have two reasons for posting this:
- It amused me that the site talks up ‘free entry to the splendid Birmingham Artsfest’ when entry is free anyway
- It’s good to see Birmingham being talked about as a destination for an arty getaway
There’s a few other items bundled into the package that might make it worth throwing your name into the hat. Link to the competition.
Elsewhere on the site there’s a good profile of Studio 4 and mentions given to the Outcrowd Collective, Them Lot, Capsule, Beat13 and Fluid’s Lee Basford. ‘Log’ Roper from Studio4 ‘paints a rosy picture of a thriving, supportive scene, where musicians and artists intermingle’

I must say that i dont remember so much art on offer when i lived in Brum a few years ago, but its good to see people making more of an effort.
Yeah, it’s amazing what goes on under the surface. Every time I show someone this blog they wonder why they’d never heard of all of this stuff before.
