Guided tours of the Warner Textile Archive can be arranged for Groups.
The team at the Archive offer groups an interesting visit to the Archive and an opportunity to see ‘behind-the-scenes’ of this world-famous collection of textiles. The facilities at the Archive include:
- Free car and coach parking
- Gallery and store on one level
- Ramp entrance to Archive
- Toilets
- Sales area
Groups are welcome to book day or evening visits, Tuesday – Friday and Saturday (daytime). The minimum number for groups is 10. In the evenings 7.15pm is the latest start time for a visit. Organisers need to allow at least 90 minutes for a visit, which includes a welcome and introduction, a conducted tour of the Archive Store and a wander around the Gallery.
Refreshments are available day or evening, in addition if you would like to visit Braintree for the day we can arrange to book you in to the Herb Café for lunch and, if you wish, ask our colleagues at Braintree District Museum to give your group a tour around the displays. There is also the opportunity for large groups to book for a buffet lunch at either the museum (available during school holidays) or Town Hall Centre.
