Harold Barling Town, D.Litt (June 13, 1924 – December 27, 1990) was a Canadian artist who worked in many different media and modes, but is best known for his abstract paintings.

He was a member of Painters Eleven, an abstract group of artists in Toronto (1954-1960). Town coined the name of the group, which was based simply on the number of artists that were present at the first meeting.

He also worked as an illustrator, a profession he credited with imparting a sense of discipline that would last throughout his entire artistic career. His early illustrative appeared in magazines such as Maclean's and Mayfair.
