Book yourself onto one of our guided tours of the Wholesale Memory Hub located in the centre of the historic Birmingham Smithfield Wholesale Market on a Sunday market – the largest car boot sale in the Midlands and a unique social nexus with a culture all of its own. While stocks last. Because Everything Must Go. See our website for full details and how to book for tours and special events: http://www.frictionarts.com And our tumblr: https://frictionarts.tumblr.com/ The birthplace of Birmingham, Smithfield has hosted markets for over 900 years. In early 2018 the site will be demolished with the Wholesale Markets being relocated, ending almost a millennium of historical markets on the site, creating the largest development in the city since the Bullring. Take this last chance to experience the markets and car boot sale, their history and unique culture through an interactive exhibition, featuring unique artefacts, interviews with traders, and archive and contemporary photography hosted in the markets precinct itself.
