Dion Kitson - Silver Lining

JW Evans is a disused silver factory, located in the historic Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham. It was left with everything in situ to the major charity English Heritage in 2008, who now operate tours around the historic workshop.

In 2024, English Heritage collaborated with IKON Gallery and the contemporary artist, Dion Kitson, to exhibit his work in the factory.
