Avril Ward

Avril Ward, an artist and former student of mine who now lives in Grand Cayman, recently mentioned me in her newsletter. I think she has heaps of talent, so I thought I’d return the favour by mentioning where you can find Avril’s website: Here.

African Art Centre

August 24th, 2009 | Posted in Art organisations, My network | Comments Off

I am the currently vice chair of The African Art Centre, a non-profit organisation which is committed to development work – specifically of african art and artists. The Centre teaches arts and crafts and provides an outlet for approximately 2000 artists and crafters to sell their wares. It is also a place where they can learn realistic marketing and fashion trends and pricing. And it is my favourite charity. Learn more at their website.

Heritage Arts Festival

August 24th, 2009 | Posted in Art festivals, My network | Comments Off

Kizo Gallery also hosts the annual Heritage Arts Festival. The festival is unusual in that it has visual arts as the primary focus and I think it is just what Durban and we artists needed in the region. I sincerely hope that it becomes one of South Africa’s best-known art festivals. Find more details here.
