The Birmingham Jane Jacobs Walk and Award’s Launch, 3
rd
 May 2025 1-4pm
Join us to celebrate the renowned American urban activist and writer Jane Jacobs as we explore Birmingham’s architectural landscape. Jacobs was born on 4 May 1916, and walks are held annually around the world in her honour. Save Smallbrook are delighted to invite you to the inaugural Birmingham Jane Jacobs Walk on Saturday 3rd May 2025, led by Mike Dring (Birmingham Modernist Society) and Joe Holyoak (C20 Society West Midlands).
Beginning at 1pm at Station Street, we’ll visit celebrated and at-risk buildings across Birmingham city centre, finishing at 4pm at Graham Winteringham’s masterpiece the Repertory Theatre on Centenary Square. Highlights include New Street Signal Box (Bicknell and Hamilton, 1965) and the recently restored Grand Hotel (Thomson Plevins, 1879), together with at-risk buildings Smallbrook Ringway Centre (James Roberts, 1962), and Corporation Square (Frederick Gibberd, 1971). Whether you're a long-time resident or a first-time visitor, this walk is a great opportunity to see the city from a new perspective.
There will be a reception at the Rep to launch the Birmingham Jane Jacobs Award 2025, hosted by Andy Street, Chair of the Board of Trustees to the theatre. Now in its second year, the award recognises the unique contribution of women to the protection of the built environment in Birmingham.
Tickets are £10 per person to include a drink upon arrival at the Repertory Theatre. To secure your place on the walk, please visit the Eventbrite link here/in biography.

We made a dedicated trip and had a lovely few hours. There was lots to see with split levels that kept your interest. The penguins were nice, the octopus made an appearance and we would have loved to see more of the otters., we see the otters.. There is plenty to see, read and touch. My grand daughter loved it all, the turtle in the tunnel is beautiful . It was clean, and we had a great time, would definitely go back, staff were helpful,its really nice and deserve to be visited again and again.

For a smaller town the Art Museum as great. We really enjoyed our visit and would recommend it if you are traveling to Birmingham. Make sure to call ahead to see if they are open.

Victoria Square, Birmingham

放飞自我去游玩

After we dropped off our luggage at the hotel, we had a big meal at a Michelin one-star restaurant, and then we began to get to know the city. First we came to Victoria Square, where a building imitating a Greek temple caught our eye. It turned out to be their town hall. Next to it was a beautiful Baroque building, the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, which was also free to visit. So we went in for a stroll. There were not many people, and the exhibits were quite rich, ranging from ancient Egypt to current art.

Chinese Quarter

There are Chinese Super League, restaurants, and many other specialty restaurants to choose from.
It&#39;s not hard to find something to eat here.
However, the food at this restaurant was a bit disappointing.
