The Plus International Design Festival starts today in Digbeth. Lots of exciting things are happening from talks to tours, more than I could attempt to summarise here so have a look through the site.
Of particular interested to this blog, though, is the Exposition where many of the agencies from Birmingham and the region will be on show giving a good snapshot of where we’re at. And while the Conference is aimed at industry-types with ticket prices to match the exposition is only a fiver to get in. (Free if you registered already.)
Also worth checking out are the Public Lectures which are also a fiver each including Michael Wolff on Friday. Three of them are “lunchtime audiences” running from 1-2pm, perfect for those working in the Custard Factory area but unable to do the whole festival.
And then, on Friday, there’s the Big Plus Party featuring, amongst other things, the launch of Blink magazine. Here’s the invite though you need to RSVP to get on the list.
See you there!
Wish they had announced the ticket thing a bit earlier, bit of a faff getting some this morning.
