At Wade Sand and Gravel, century old structures
still stand, harking back to the days of Birmingham's industrial
revolution. The old ovens and pump houses are reminders of the
days when the site boomed with activity as Republic Steel and in
it's earliest incarnation as Thomas Coke Works. This is the historic
backdrop for a unique group of artists-in-residence, dubbed The
Artists of the Thomas Project. Under the auspices of two of
Birmingham's most innovative art patrons, Robin and Carolyn Wade,
these artist have converted spaces in this historic setting into
studios where they produce art while restoring the buildings and
offer workshops to the community.
