Constantiaberg Art Society is an organisation promoting artists. We meet once a month where we have demonstrations, interesting talks, monthly art challenges and lots of books to inspire you. The artwork produced by our members is beautiful and very reasonably priced. Come and visit us at Kirstenbosch Richard Crowie Hall or visit our website.
This exhibition allows each member of the Society to participate. Members may submit up to three to four artworks to display, together with 4 works in the portfolio.
This self-selected exhibition is particularly advantageous to new members within the Society, to have the opportunity to show and sell their work, sometimes for the very first time. It gives the confidence to submit works to all SASA’s other prestigious exhibitions.
All Members of The South African Society of Artists can still take advantage of the Members’ 2 Exhibition which starts on the 18 August 2023. Hanging day will be on the morning of 18 August.
The Exhibition will be held at the Richard Crowie Hall, Gate 2, Kirstenbosch Gardens, open daily from 10h00 – 16h00.
For further information please contact The South African Society of Artists secretary, Nicole Riedler, on email secretary@sasa-artists.co.za.
