Our purpose is to share the rich artistic and social legacy of one of Britain’s greatest designers.

We’ve just announced our Morris Mania appeal! Read more about the project.

Please note: On Friday 20 December the Gallery will be closed for a private event from 10am, re-opening to the public at 2pm. Lloyd Park will remain open; however, access will not be available via Forest Road or Bedford Road car park.
