The gallery has a large collection of textiles. Here they are displayed in part of the original gallery, refurbished and made more open, fewer textiles displayed at a time but more space around them. As well as these textile samples in one case, another had a large notice "Who made my clothes" with campaigning T-shirts, slogans like "Pay living wage now".
