Helmshore Textile Museum will close to the public between June 2006 and April 2007 so a massive refurbishment programme can take place.
The planned developments will include new displays and galleries, a recommended route round the museum and improved visitor facilities.
The changes to the Textile Museum, in Holcombe Road, are being made possible thanks to a £1million grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
