Inspired by Chartwell Painting Exhibition
See the winning paintings from the ‘Inspired by Chartwell’ Painting Competition
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
In 2025, we invited amateur artists of all ages and experience to be inspired as Churchill was and enter their own paintings of the house, gardens or landscape at Chartwell into a competition to have their pieces displayed in Churchill’s studio throughout 2026.
A panel of judges selected the winning entries, and we are pleased to present them to our visitors as an exhibition in Churchill’s studio. The winning paintings are shown alongside Churchill’s works which number over 100 paintings.
Opening dates and times vary throughout the year, so please check our home page 'opening times' for the date you would like to visit.
