The Quaker Tapestry Museum has been named a ‘Hidden Gem’
The Quaker Tapestry Museum in Kendal has been named a ‘Hidden Gem’ by tourism body VisitEngland.
The museum is one of just forty-six attractions in the country to receive a VisitEngland accolade in recognition of providing a good visitor experience.
The museum’s general manager Bridget Guest said: ‘This has been a great year for the Quaker Tapestry and this recognises all the hard work put in by our volunteers and small team of staff.’
‘Our VisitEngland “Hidden Gem” accolade suggests there’s a lot on offer here that makes for a high quality visitor experience. As a small charity we continue to work hard to make sure that we live up to this.’
The team at the museum is currently finalising a display of the Magna Carta tapestries and planning a new exhibition for 2015 on chocolate, banking and shoes.
