Visiting Us:

Important update: The Foundation cafe, exhibition and archive are currently closed to the public due to government coronavirus advice. We’re honouring existing event bookings, but check with organisers for postponements or cancellations. We will reopen when it is appropriate to do so. In the meantime, Foundation activities continue apace: check this site and our social media for all things Burgess.

When we are open, our office hours are 10am to 4pm weekdays. Access to the collections is by appointment, and if you would like to arrange a visit please contact Anna Edwards (Archivist) in advance on anna@anthonyburgess.org or 0161 235 0776 (please do not call during the coronavirus closure: email instead).

The building is fully accessible.

By air

Manchester is served by Manchester International Airport, from which there are trains to Manchester Piccadilly (30 minutes) or taxis (20 minutes).

GPS

We are closer to the corner of Hulme Street than Google Maps would suggest, but here is our location anyway.
