Why go

The building supplies an unusually powerful frame for textile art. Seeing contemporary tapestry within the old hospital space creates a dialogue across periods that neither the room nor the works would produce alone. It is a particularly strong stop for visitors interested in material, scale and setting.

What to look for

  • See modern tapestry in dialogue with a medieval hospital hall.

Useful to know

  • Give the former hospital hall and the tapestries equal attention.
