The Lancashire Textile Gallery is a collaboration between Gawthorpe Textiles Collection, the University of Central Lancashire and Super Slow Way / British Textile Biennial with contributions from museums and archives across Lancashire. You can find out more about the different venues we have worked with below.
The Lancashire’s Textile Treasures project has received DCMS and National Lottery funding, distributed by the Heritage Fund as part of their Digital Skills for Heritage initiative.
