JUST £320,000 LEFT TO RAISE!

Thank you so much to everyone who has already helped mac’s building appeal. Please help us to complete the task and secure the future of mac for the people of Birmingham.

Since it opened in 1962, the Midlands Arts Centre – or mac as it is fondly known - has introduced over 10 million people to the arts and is now used by over 10% of Birmingham’s population each year. That extraordinary level of usage had taken its toll on our buildings, which were built in the 1960s and 70 and were literally crumbling. So in April 2008 we embarked on an exciting £14.8m refurbishment which will see new features including a fantastic double-height gallery space, which will mean we can both attract international artists to Birmingham and support talent based closer to home, and a brand new dance studio overlooking Cannon Hill Park.

The best of the old features will be retained, such as our popular cinema, music, literature, comedy and theatre programmes, which will all return in nicer surroundings, and our sell-out education classes which will continue to introduce thousands of people of ages to new artistic opportunities. Events for families and young people will remain central to our vision, and we’ll keep the friendly mac welcome in the bar and café areas which will be 40% bigger than previously. mac will reopen in spring 2010.

We’ve raised over £14.4m, from Arts Council England West Midlands, Birmingham City Council and a cornucopia of generous individuals, trusts and companies.

Please help us to complete the task by recycling your phones and printer cartridges in aid of our building appeal.
