In 2024, Hardwick’s prestigious Gideon Tapestries received international recognition for the 24-year conservation project to restore these tapestries. This project received High Commendation in the Museum + Heritage Awards, the project also went on to win the illustrious Europa Nostra Award for the Conservation and Adaptive Re-use.
