AFTER TEN YEARS OF CLOSURE, THE OLD TOWN HOUSE/MICHAELIS COLLECTION HAS RE-OPENED! It's been a long wait since the end of 2015 when the building was closed because of the dangers posed by its antiquated wiring system and the Michaelis Collection was moved to safety.

NOW ... opened last night, at last ....A glorious restoration of the building with new lighting systems and display cases showcasing 'Reflections', an inspiring triple bill of ceramics, paintings and prints from the Iziko Art and Social History Collections.

Congratulations to Esther Esmyol, Andrew Lamprecht and Andrea Lewis on bringing this important site back to life!

NOT TO BE MISSED!
