Garden Party and Hand & Lock Atelier visit

Posted: 28th July 2024

Burgon Society Garden Parties are always colourful occasions and members, and their guests are encouraged to turn up in their most festive academic dress. This season’s Party will be held at the historic church of All Saints, Margaret Street, London.

This year we will also have the opportunity for a guided tour of the nearby workshops of renowned embroiderers Hand & Lock. See  https://burgon.org.uk/events for further details of both events.
