ABOUT
The Johnston Collection (TJC) is a house museum with a superb collection of English Georgian, Regency, and Louis XV fine and decorative arts which was a gift from William Robert Johnston (1911-1986) to the people of Victoria. Johnston was a prominent Melbourne-born antique dealer, real estate investor and collector. The Collection is displayed in a constantly changing domestic setting, in his former residence, Fairhall, an historic 1860s East Melbourne townhouse. A vibrant program of lectures, workshops, and special events are offered through the year.
