David Christopher Macklin Smart (1971–1978)

 

Margaret and Chris Smart made a generous donation in memory of their son, David Christopher Macklin Smart.

They chose to donate to the Gallery because they always loved the paintings and felt very privileged to have such a wonderful Gallery so accessible and free to all.

By donating in memory of their son, they have helped ensure access to the collection for future generations by supporting our education programme for children and adults of all ages and from all walks of life.

Thank you Margaret and Chris.
