In:Site Festival returns to Birmingham City Centre for a ninth year this September with recent graduates transforming the outdoor space around the cathedral by creating unusual craft ‘interventions’
It takes place in Cathedral Square from the 5th – 7th September. Artists will be working in the square each day and people passing by can come along and watch makers creating their work and also join in with the activities. It is free for everyone to watch and take part. It’s a great way to showcase the work of new and upcoming artists and makers to the public and lots of fun for everyone who gets involved.
Past commissions have included casting jewellery from cracks in paving slabs and contemporary lace pieces on trees inspired by tracking people’s movement around the park. With different artists working each day, at the end of the festival visitors can expect to see the space adorned with new art works.
In:Site is organised by Birmingham based arts charity Craftspace.
