Birmingham's Gunmakers Arms pub has been transformed into a vibrant hub for art and music lovers, reopening on Friday after a significant renovation.

Downstairs, the focus remains on supporting local creativity. Patrons can enjoy food and explore exhibitions showcasing works from various local artists. Mr. Newman took on the pub earlier this year after its closure, driven by a desire to provide a platform for emerging talent within the community.
