Slow down, observe and respond to the human form in this immersive life drawing workshop with multidisciplinary artist and educator Jo Shepherd.

Working from a live life model, you will be guided through a series of drawing exercises, from quick observational sketches to longer poses as the model shifts and changes position. Along the way, you will explore the expressive possibilities of graphite, charcoal and felt-tip pens, while developing an understanding of line, composition, proportion, gesture and mark-making.

Since 2019, we have been building relationships with a group of local NGOs and NPOs. In this Outreach Programme, learners from local communities are taught the basic elements and principles of art and design through tailored theoretical classes and practical workshops.

Between June and July works created by learners from Vision Afrika, The Sustainability Institute, Legacy Community Development, Anna Foundation and Green Door Project were showcased. Each learner completed a series of creative worksheets and activities aimed at establishing a foundation in visual literacy. After completion of the theoretical component, learners visited the museum for an afternoon of fun and hands-on application of the knowledge gained, during which they completed a practical component.

Celebrating their creations, we proudly exhibited the artworks of the Grade R to Grade 6 learners. Visitors were encouraged to vote for their favourites with some rotations even inviting the viewer to draw and interact around the creations. From clouds, pirate ships and castles to more characters added, the creatures came alive in the scenes created.

Thank you to every visitor who voted. Now, we proudly announce the Visitor Favourites. Learners from these different institutions visited the museum for a special prizegiving on Saturday, 15 August, where they each received an art hamper and certificate.
