Visitors to Birmingham Museums can enjoy a special discount in its gift shops on Sunday 30 November as part of Museum Shop Sunday.

For one day only, there will be a 15 per cent discount on all items, in store and online, as well as some edible festive treats for in-store shoppers to enjoy.

Museum Shop Sunday is an annual international campaign to highlight the vital role of retail in helping arts, cultural and heritage venues to survive and thrive.

This year, over 2,000 visitor attractions worldwide will be coming together to celebrate with special events and promotions for visitors to enjoy.

If you are searching for the perfect gift, Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery’s shop has a wide range of unique products on offer, many of which are locally made and reflect the city’s past and present.

Birmingham-inspired items include Black Mass hot sauce, a collaboration between local maker Pip’s Hot Sauce and Home of Metal to celebrate the city’s metal heritage, a poster of Benny’s Babbies by satirical collage artist Cold War Steve, a Birmingham Colour Palette mug by local designer Stacey Barnfield with colours that include Mr Egg Yellow, Jewellery Quarter Gold, the Bull Bronze and Sabbath Black or a Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery tote bag designed by Bournville-based illustrator Milan Topalović.

The shelves are brimming with other gifts, including titles for book lovers of all ages, such as Heavy Metal Badger by Duncan Beedie, Last Rites by Ozzy Osbourne, People need People by Benjamin Zephaniah and The Whole Picture: the colonial story of the art in our museums & why we need to talk about it by art historian and museum enthusiast Alice Proctor.

Birmingham Museums’ other sites also offer thoughtful, place-specific gifts, with science and space-themed kits for curious minds at Thinktank, contemporary jewellery created in Birmingham workshops at the Museum of the Jewellery Quarter and nature-connected gifts and items that nod to Tolkien’s origin story at Sarehole Mill.
