Art in the Heart celebrates world class art at 23 leading West Midlands cultural attractions throughout 2013.
It highlights the strengths of the region’s world class art collections and its innovative contemporary programmes, many underpinned by national and international partnerships to bring art of the highest quality to the Heart of England.
You can see work by amazing artists from Botticelli and Rembrandt to Damien Hirst and Quentin Blake in a variety of venues, from Jacobean and Georgian mansions to contemporary art galleries and even a Planetarium. Running alongside this calendar of exhibitions is a specially commissioned poetry programme, containing a series of public workshops led by Poet in Residence Philip Monks.
The Art in the Heart website gives an easy reference guide to all of the 23 venues taking part and a glimpse of some of the exhibitions you can see. It’s really good to see that Birmingham Museums have a one-stop destination for all of their events, and hopefully there will be a lot of people making good use of it!
