Creative Heights II: Shoot the Sunset from Staying Cool at the Rotunda

On Sunday 1st October 2023, Elliott and Jack and other photographers got the chance to go up to the level 20 balcony from Staying Cool at the Rotunda, as the sun went down. It was a bit cloudy, so not much of a sunset really, and got misty as it got dark. The views was amazing. Here just highlights of the views.

It was a bit cloudy, so not much of a sunset really, and got misty as it got dark. The views was amazing. Here just highlights of the views.


Full photos here in Sky High Birmingham.

This visit to Staying Cool at the Rotunda was booked two months in advance for Creative Heights II. The £15 paid went to the Love Brum charity, they raised over £400.

Sunday 1st October 2023 between 5pm and 8pm (although Elliott and Jack arrived around 4:30pm, and left by 7:30pm).

The balcony was on Level 20. We had access mainly to one penthouse suite, and briefly let into the other for the views on the other side.

Mali Morris Calling and Dean Kelland Imposter Syndrome at the IKON Gallery





From September to December 2023, there is two art exhibitions located at the IKON Gallery in Oozells Square, Brindleyplace. Head up to Level 1 for Mali Morris Calling and then up to Level 2 for Dean Kelland Imposter Syndrome. Use the stairs or the lift.


Mali Morris Calling

You can see some of Mali Morris Calling art outside of the IKON Gallery from Oozells Square, in Brindleyplace. The exhibition opened on 20th September, and will run to 22nd December 2023.

Head up the stairs for a look at the Mali Morris Calling art exhibition on Level 1.

A major solo exhibition by British artist Mali Morris. Calling has nearly 30 works from the last 25 years.

Morris's first solo exhibition was held at the Ikon Gallery on John Bright Street in 1979, so she returns to the Ikon now at Brindleyplace, some 44 years later to transform the galleries space into fields of colour and light.
