Art Exhibition Hyde Park Corner

The Rotary Club Of Rosebank
Annual Art Festival

On Show
The International 95th Birthday Tribute
To Nelson Mandela Entitled
“Thanks For The Colour”
Consisting Of 95 Paintings By Local Artist Salli Van Druten
 
 

The event will feature 50 artists, including nine special guests, exhibiting more than 400 artworks for sale.
Art lovers can look forward to wonderfully exhibited art and some on-site demonstrations and workshops that will be open to everyone.

One hundred and fifty small prints were painted and donated by artists and two large artworks, also donated to the festival, are to be raffled.

The Rotary Club of Rosebank will benefit by receiving a percentage of the sale of the art.

This celebration of art will last for 10 days until 1 June. It promises to be bigger and better than the exhibition that ran in 2012 which hosted over 700 guests on opening night and was extremely well attended by art lovers, art collectors and galleries looking for new talent.
