The Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery and The Rep anchor a schedule of exhibitions and performances through the summer and into 2027.
How we reported this

Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery is running the free exhibition Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero until 27 September 2026.
The show marks the late rock legend's global achievements at a time when the same venue is preparing for another major display. Joe Lycett's first major solo art exhibition, titled EVERY THING MUST GO, opens on 29 July 2026 and continues until 21 February 2027. These back-to-back presentations give visitors a continuous reason to visit the museum in the coming months.
