Our Killerton

See the 'Our Killerton' display on the ground floor of the house. This year we’ve spotlighted 8 objects from the collection that have been chosen by our staff, volunteers, visitors and community partners.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

This year we have a display of objects on the ground floor of Killerton House, each chosen by people connected to Killerton. The objects have been chosen by our staff, volunteers, visitors and community partners. These groups have chosen these objects by responding to the prompt; ‘Objects can evoke memories, emotions and personal interests. What object at Killerton House speaks to you and why?’

From Saturday 4 July, visitors are invited to view Patricia Dixon’s climactic artwork in response to the ‘Our Killerton’ display.

Patricia, an artist who works in contemporary stained glass and textiles, was commissioned to create a new artwork inspired by the people-led stories behind the featured objects.

The artwork will be on display in the study.

Open daily until 1 November. Last entry to the house, 3.30pm.

Usual admission fees apply.
