mac Birmingham is an impressive new arts venue for the Midlands, located next to the Edgbaston Cricket Ground.

Opened recently in May 2010, it had 30,000 visitors in it’s first weekend.The building provides a great open space with fantastic natural light, with free parking, a huge park and a good cafe! With it’s focus on visual arts, it’s a fine venue to contribute some of your own.

We meet at the cafe at 10am for coffee, then head out into Cannon Hill Park to take pictures which we review back in the cafe. Looking at your own and other people’s interpretations of the same subjects is a great way to learn and to improve your style.
