Magic at Mosaic, spring fairs & art jewellery
Just when we thought spring had sprung, winter had one last thing to say about it! If the weather forecast holds true though sunny days are just around the corner, perfect timing to get out and explore Joburg this weekend.
In this week's newsletter we have loads of ideas for how to get out and support local this week including: a new review of Mosaic at The Orient, contemporary jewellery as art at Tinsel Gallery in Melville, a new contemporary art destination opens in Joburg, the return of movie nights at the cinema, weekend markets, how to start collecting art online and a beautiful new pop-up shop showcasing local design.
Read on for this week's essential guide to enjoying Joburg in lockdown!
