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.
