Burgh House Curator Amy Miller, gives a free talk exploring Donald Chisholm Towner (1903 – 1985) .
Join Curator Amy Miller for a free talk exploring the work and legacy of Donald Towner, the subject of our major exhibition for 2026. Born in Eastbourne, East Sussex, Towner moved to Hampstead in the late 1920s eventually settling on Church Row, where he would live for the next 50 years. He was part of a convivial group of artists and writers, and his work often conjured an idyll of summer days and lush greenery that set off the architecture of Old Hampstead. His paintings also record changes capturing what are now lost views. This talk will take place in the Marie-Louise von Motesiczky Gallery.

Please note: Although this is a free talk, booking is necessary as numbers are limited. We kindly ask that if you have booked and are unable to come, you get in touch with us at info@burghhouse.org.uk.
