The bit before the ta-da!
Seventh Circle Digbeth: Three Months In
Three months ago, we stepped away from our old gallery in Moseley Village and into something new, not because we’d failed, but because it was time. Time for more. Our small haven on a quaint row had grown too big for what we wanted from it.
Since then, it’s been dust, graft, and a whole lot of figuring things out as we go. No big budget, no safety net, just belief, passion, and a vision too important to wait for perfect conditions.
We parted ways with St Mary’s Row on May 4th, and it’s been a whirlwind of power tools, legal faff, and late nights ever since. But now, the new Seventh Circle Gallery is slowly emerging and it’s brimming with character, just how we like it.
We’ve cleared the new space, built new walls from scratch, and kept things moving through a cycle of framing jobs and reinvestment. It’s been start-stop, rinse-repeat—but we’re finally at the part where the space is starting to feel like a gallery again. And we’re properly excited about the exhibition space.

What’s Coming Next
We’re building a bigger, bolder Seventh Circle Gallery:
• A platform for our beloved artists and fresh new faces
• A purpose-built pod for our signature high-quality framing
• A dedicated exhibition and event space for a year-round creative calendar
• Four bright, spacious artist studios
And… it’s all nearly here!
We’re still deep in the build, behind the scenes, sleeves rolled up, making it happen. Every purchase from our online sale helps fund the final stage of the build: timber, lighting, paint—all the essentials and we get one step closer to opening our doors!
We’re building this space for the artists and for the community that believes in art as connection and supporting local creatives. If you’ve backed us, believed in us, or simply followed along, thank you. You’re part of this story. Seventh Circle Digbeth will open soon, and we can’t wait to welcome you in.
