Pop-up arts gallery, BlowCreates, is due to open in the Custard Factory’s Zellig building on 25 January.

This newly established PR and marketing venture had been set up by two Birmingham City University students. Follow their progress on Facebook and Tumblr, where they’ve been offering sneak peeks into the kind of artists we can expect to see in the gallery.

Blow will bring a new, exciting and innovative arts venue to Birmingham, selling work by painters, photographers, illustrators, sculptors, designers and more, many of whom are current students or graduates from Arts Universities.

The launch event looks set to be an interesting evening, with music, drinks and live art from local illustrator Joel Millerchip.
