Hello everyone,

A HUGE thanks to everyone for coming to see us at Verbena the last weeks!

We are now able to confirm that we will be at Verbena the next weeks for most of April on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays 12-3 (1474 Pershore Road, Birmingham B30 2NT).

➡️ Click HERE to pre-order bread and buns. This week we will have Hot Cross Buns for the last time until March 2027 …

If you don’t want to pre-order that’s alright, we always have more to sell.

➡️ You can email info@loaf.coop to pre-order lunch (menu below).

➡️ Cut-off time for all pre-orders is 11am on the day before pick up!

Thanks so much again to STEAMHOUSE and Verbena for offering us their spaces! We don’t know what we would do without your help! 💛 💛 💛

We are pleased to share that negotiations with GreenSquareAccord are back underway, with the support of Birmingham City Council and our larger community.

With a new proposed completion date at the end of April, we’re hopeful that a resolution is within reach and that this ten-year-long project can finally be returned to Stirchley.

We will keep everyone updated as we progress this resolution.

As always, thank you to all those who have come out to support us and shared words of encouragement - we are so thankful to have our community standing with us.

🎸🚨 Artefact Presents... Eric Chenaux and Karolina Wegryzyn - 28th April, 7pm Centrala Space 🚨🎷

Eric Chenaux is one of the great contemporary guitarists and experimental songsmiths. His work balances masterful improvisation and classic composition, at once giving nods to avant-garde noiseniks, folk songwriters and the great jazz singers.

Karolina Wegrzyn is an award-winning Polish folk singer and multi-instrumentalist from South-Eastern Poland, now based in West Midlands. She plays accordion, hammered dulcimer and frame drums. Raised in a family of traditional singers and dancers, she inherited many songs from her grandmother and uses archaic “scream singing” rooted in Eastern European village traditions.

This concert is taking place at Centrala and we’d like to thank them for hosting Artefact whilst we still await moving into our new home! 🙏

Centrala, Art Gallery And Creative Space (Address:
Unit 4 Minerva Works, 158 Fazeley Street, Birmingham, B5 5RT)
