Join us as landscape designer Leslie Martino highlights the talents, interests, and accomplishments of Donald Grant Mitchell (1822-1908) that led to his selection as designer of New Haven parks. Mitchell’s travels, his work as a writer, editor, lecturer, map maker, architect and landscape designer, and his advocacy for the arts and creating a harmonious relationship between home and nature propelled him toward the role of park designer. We’ll explore the urban park movement in New Haven primarily through Mitchell’s original drawings which are part of the New Haven Museum Collection.
