JQ at Home
Blue Shape

Stay at home and let the Jewellery Quarter come to you…

On Saturday 13th June, we're inviting you to enjoy an exciting day of online, JQ entertainment within the safety of your own four walls. JQ at Home is a celebration of the artistry, creativity and history of this unique Quarter of Birmingham.

Expect over 12 hours of entertainment, including yoga classes, beauty demos, whisky masterclasses, live music and plenty of craft and heritage workshops. All sessions are free to attend, but please see the individual events for full details of how to join and take part.

We look forward to bringing the JQ into your home.
