Coming Soon- Our Annual General Meeting
7th March 2023
An Annual General Meeting?
It doesn't sound like the most exciting event you will attend in 2023. We hope it isn't, not least because the Friends of the Whitworth are planning a whole range of interesting activities over the next 12 months.
We do hope, though, that you will put this date in your diary - 2pm 7th March 2023 - and join us at the Whitworth.
The Annual General Meeting - let's call it the AGM - is a yearly stocktaking. it's a chance to tell you all what we have been up to over the year, how we have spent your subscriptions, donations and the money raised from last year's activities. It's also YOUR opportunity to tell US what you think about the previous year, and what you would like to see us do in the year ahead.
As well as all that, we have some special guests.
Whitworth Curator, Amy George and xxxy, Ann French will be giving us a glimpse of one of the Whitworth's latest acquisitions, The ABC Wax Archive.
This extensive archive is the last surviving industrial design archive of a Manchester textile printing company which made textiles for export to African and some Middle Eastern or Asian markets. The archive is being gifted to the Gallery. A £10,000 donation from the Friends of the Whitworth is enabling the archive to be packed, transported and undergo initial conservation processes. It's a truly spectacular addition to the Whitworth and builds on our already important textile collection.
Make sure you are there on 7th March to find out more!
PS. Tea and Biscuits will be served!
