Annie Fforde’s commissioned installation, Fabric of Memory, will premiere here as one of this year’s OUR TURN Festival commissions.

From 1–16 November 2025, Ilkley Manor House presents a quiet gathering of textile works by Hannah Lamb, Annie Fforde, Sarah Gamble, Pippa Hamiltonand Lorna Jewitt as part of the OUR TURN Festival. The exhibition sits close to process—stitch, dye and surface—as ways of carrying memory and touch, moving from small, attentive gestures to material-led installation.
