Jewellery Quarter Lates returns on Thursday, November 27, inviting you to explore hidden corners and creative spaces that usually close at sundown. Held on the last Thursday of every month, this after-hours celebration turns Birmingham’s historic district into a night-time playground of jewellery, art, food and textiles. This month, The Hive on Vittoria Street shines a spotlight on West Midlands jewellery makers and hosts hands-on sessions where you can craft your own textured piece with new Artist in Residence, Julie Smith. Elsewhere, Brutally Honest Bakery on Spencer Street proves that indulgence doesn’t need allergens — every cake and bake is vegan, nut-free and gluten-free. Meanwhile, B18 Leather opens its workshop for a tactile evening of colour, craftsmanship, and live leather-stitching demos.
