Company Performance Metrics
The Dovecot Foundation advances visual art, craft and design by supporting tapestry weaving and related textile practices. The foundation operates through Dovecot Studios, where specialist weavers create handwoven tapestries and gun-tufted rugs in collaboration with contemporary artists and institutional clients. It programmes public exhibitions of
art, design and textiles, alongside talks, tours and workshops that introduce visitors to weaving techniques, textile traditions and contemporary practice. Ticketed events, guided studio tours and learning experiences are structured to support skills development and wider engagement with visual culture. The foundation also enables venue-based activity by making gallery and studio spaces available for corporate, cultural and private events, linking commercial hire to its charitable purpose. Through this combined studio, gallery, education and events model, The Dovecot Foundation maintains and develops tapestry and craft knowledge for diverse audiences.
