Embroiderers Guild Centenary Celebrations

Worthing Museum and the Embroiderers’ Guild South East East Region are really putting on a show to celebrate the Guild’s Centenary Year, 2006. The exhibition, titled Past, Present and Future, includes pieces of work from branches throughout the South East East Region.

Curator Kate Rose said, WWe are very lucky to have a vast textile community in Sussex and we are all very pleased the Embroiderers Guild South East East Region wanted to celebrate their centenary year with us at Worthing Museum."

Guild Members will be demonstrating on each Saturday throughout the exhibition. The exhibition coincides with the museum’s annual Textile Day on Saturday 17th June and some events take place during the Artists & Makers Festival in July.

The exhibition is free. The Museum is open Tuesday to Saturday from 10am – 5pm each day.

Textile Day is on Saturday 17th June from 10am – 5pm with demonstrations from local textile groups including makers from RAG.
