Arts & Crafts Textiles Tour

April 2, 2018 10.30 - 13.00 at The William Morris Society and Emery Walker's House

For 2018 we are offering opportunities to get up close to items that are rarely on show to the public with a specialist tour of both the Society’s premises and  nearby Emery Walker’s House. The tours will explore the Arts & Crafts textiles in both collections, including exquisite examples of May Morris’s work.

​

The tours will start at the William Morris Society, where you will be led by textiles and embroidery expert Sally Roberson. They will begin with an introduction to the William Morris Society’s textile collection, followed by tea/coffee and biscuits. A short walk along the river will then take the group to Emery Walker’s House (7 Hammersmith Terrace) where you will be able to view and hear about the textiles in situ at this recently restored Arts & Crafts gem. Due to space constraints at Emery Walker’s House, places are strictly limited to 8 per tour.
