We worship a God who is the ultimate Creator of all things - from the tiniest details of a butterfly's wings to the most spectacular sunsets - and so, we want to celebrate the arts and creativity as a means of honouring Him, whose image we are made to reflect.
With this in mind, we will be hosting a pop-up art exhibition to showcase the creations of local artists in our community, including some of the talented young artists from the Morgenster farm community's New Day Aftercare, who have been receiving art lessons from a passionate and kindhearted professional artist in our PVC family. You can expect to see a wonderful array of original artworks from up-and-coming and established artists.
See the image below for dates and times. Entry for viewing is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be available, cappuccinos and hot chocolates are sold for R20 each.
Are you an artist, based in or around the Durbanville/Bellville area?
We'd like to invite you to exhibit with us. Space is limited and submissions will be accepted on a first come, first served basis, however preference will be given to artists who have not yet had a solo exhibition. Kindly take note of the terms and conditions below.
While light refreshments and eats will be available for purchase, we would also like to provide some free of charge for everyone who comes to view our work, each artist is therefore required to contribute:
R 150 towards the cost of hosting/catering (payment to be arranged no later than Thursday, 10 March 2022)

Each artist is responsible for setting up their own display within their designated area (this includes bringing their own easels, tables, etc.) on Friday, 18 March between 13:00 and 15:00; and to pack away and clean their area on Saturday, 19 March after the exhibition has closed from 15:00 to 17:00.
Each artist is responsible for handling any sales of their artworks (no commission will be charged).
