Midlands Art Centre, Birmingham
Contract Value: £10.6 million
This new build and refurbishment scheme had been talked about for more than a decade and was a joint venture between the MAC, South Asian Arts development agency (Sampad), and Birmingham City Council. It was jointly funded by BCC and the Arts Council, with Thomas Vale Construction being chosen as the preferred contractor. The new facilities and expansion of areas also means the MAC can accommodate more events and exhibitions. The MAC’s facelift included the design and build of a new three storey central link to include a restaurant/ café, additional 200msq space for performing arts and leisure, first floor double height art gallery and consolidated open plan offices. Major refurbishment works were carried out to the existing theatres, cinema and other arts studios and office spaces.
