It’s a hive of activity in Gallery 37 at 104-108 Floodgate Street. Yesterday I took them up on their invitation to pop in and found young apprentice artists had totally taken over the large warehouse space, with photographers uploading their images in the main room, musicians and lyricists brain-storming in a side room, the back yard being cleared for astro-turfing and dancers practicing in the first floor studio.
The dancers were preparing to be part of Birmingham Opera Company’s forthcoming production of King Idomeneo, which will be performed on 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 23 August at The Sherborne Building, Icknield Square, Birmingham B16 0PP.
Gallery 37 apprentice artists’ work will be shown in Centenary Square on 22 August. There’s also a showcase of UK-wide Gallery 37 Plus work (including Birmingham) in Liverpool planned.
