Both artists have worked with groups across Birmingham to produce a series of works exploring the dreams and ambitions of d/Deaf, blind and disabled individuals, as well as discussing experiences of employment and workplace culture today. The outcome has been an exhibition that brings together art and language. The words displayed throughout the gallery are the participants own – powerful and evocative, they show how they see themselves and want to be seen, as well as how they feel within the workplace and barriers they face. Exhibition open to the public: 10th August - 3rd September 2021 Book your FREE timed ticket via Eventbrite Please Note: Social distancing measures are in place to reduce the number of visitors in the gallery at any time, cleaning of the area is carried out in between timed sessions, and a through route is in place to reduce gathering. ________________ Book
