Solihull Gallery
The Gallery at Central Library & Arts Complex has a programme of contrasting contemporary art exhibitions throughout the year and consists of two art Galleries. G1 and G2.
G1
The G1 space exhibits a programme of professional contemporary work by regional and national artists. The programme is funded mainly through the Council to enable the Gallery to commission artists to make new work from 2009 onwards
.
G2
In addition to the main Gallery, G2 is an exhibition space that can be hired by the arts community in Solihull and its surrounding area, details of charge and agreements are in the G2 hirers pack.
This space is designed to give the local arts community a platform to exhibit work and further their professional development. It is available for hire by anybody who wishes, there is no selection process, just a booking procedure. This space was previously known as the ‘community gallery’ and as of March 2008 it has been re-launched as the G2 space.
