After over a year of closure, we hope that The Silk Museum will reopen its doors to visitors on 20th May 2021, and will be preparing Paradise Mill for reopening as soon as feasible.
A £65k grant from the Government’s Culture Recovery Fund enables us to continue our important creative activities we have developed for vulnerable older people and for schools throughout Lockdown.
It also helps lay firm foundations for the future, and supports plans to welcome you back to your museums next month.
YOUR MUSEUM NEEDS YOU
The pandemic has forced the Museum to shut for much of this year. Closed doors and greatly reduced tourism have dealt Macclesfield Museums a huge financial blow.
Please help us today: Every donation, of any size, makes an important difference in helping our work with our local community and preserving our collections. Please consider giving what you can. Thank-you.
