This delightful twice yearly art route, crammed with work by an eclectic mix of artists, is particularly enjoyable for both artists and visitors, as they get to engage in the personal studio spaces where all the magic happens. The Summer Edition of Open Studios has a distinct character. It often has fewer participants than the Winter one, so art lovers can visit studios at a more leisurely pace, in between enjoying the incredible surroundings and all the fab foodie spots in town.

 This time, I am delighted to welcome wonderful sculptor Wehrner Lemmer back as my guest artist.

Guest artist Cathy Brennon will guide participants through making a double-sided concertina sketch book, with a mixed media cover.

Tea/coffee and materials included. (Bring your own lunch.) Cost R750.

VISIT OUR SHOWROOM IN PRINCE ALBERT

After my husband and I relocated to Prince Albert in early 2019, we undertook a major renovation project on our new (but very old) home. Part of that involved turning our lovely old high-roofed Karoo clay and straw barn into an art/book showroom, which is now open by appointment.

We look forward to welcoming you here at 35 Christina de Wit Street, Prince Albert.

Phone 083 261 9671 for an appointment, or preferably Whatsapp, as our signal is pretty awful.

(N.B. The street numbers are not in sequence, but it is easy to find, being the first building on the left as you enter town from the Meiringspoort / Swartberg Pass side, directly opposite the historic old Mill).

This delightful twice yearly art route, crammed with work by an eclectic mix of artists, is particularly enjoyable for both artists and visitors, as they get to engage in the personal studio spaces where all the magic happens. The Summer Edition of Open Studios has a distinct character. It is less frenetic than the Winter Edition. Taking into account the weather, it allows for a slower pace, where the offerings at fewer studios can be savoured (a little akin to Karoo Slow Food, taking time to extract the best from the experience.) It also allows for a midday siesta, with renewed visits in the cooler late afternoons.
