Save the William Morris Gallery



The William Morris Gallery in Walthamstow (London, UK) is under closure threat from Waltham Forest council. I lived in Walthamstow for 4 months, and during my meanderings around the borough, I was blessed to discover the Gallery.


William Morris was a giant in the Arts and Crafts Movement, a green thinker, and a founder of the socialist movement in Britain. His legacy should be celebrated, not put in the bin!

Morris placed great value on work and the joy of craftsmanship. His belief in the natural beauty of materials led him to learn and revive traditional skills such as natural dyeing, hand-block printing and tapestry weaving
