Dovecot champions art, design and craftsmanship at the very highest level and across creative disciplines. Whilst tapestry weaving and international artistic collaborations remain central, the building itself also incorporates three museum quality exhibition gallery spaces, as well as two commercial offices and five residential apartments. 
 
 

Dovecot also offers events hire and gallery rental, studio visits and guided tours, there is a programme of exhibitions and activities which run throughout the year.
