What’s on
A square graphic featuring purple text and orange shapes on a plain white background. At the top of the graphic, simple, minimal font reads ‘Grand Union’ in a bright purple shade Below this, bright orange shapes are arranged to spell out the word ‘open’ in an abstracted way, the shapes have a plasticky, tape-like quality about them, and slightly overlap the simple font. Below the orange shapes, the same purple font used at the top of the graphic, spells out ‘studios’.

May Digbeth First Friday: Spring Open Studios

Grand Union Studios2 May 20256–9pm

Twice a year Grand Union’s studio artists open their doors to the public for an open studio event, inviting visitors into our active art-making community. This is a great opportunity to meet and chat about the work and practices of our brilliant artists and to see inside the spaces they work from.

We’ll be playing studio bingo once again, so grab a map and make sure to get a sticker from each studio you visit. Full, returned bingo cards will be added to a prize draw, and the winner will receive a Growing Project plant pot.

More information will be shared in due course.

Access Information

Grand Union’s Studios are located up a flight of stairs with no lift access. There are two spacious, gender neutral toilets with no mobility aids. Alcohol and soft drinks will be available to purchase from the pay bar.
