Art Awards
Based in the little Karoo at the Station, Art on Track annual art awards
Art on Track started off as a community project to promote local artists in SA. It has grown in stature over the years and people travel from near and far support the annual event. The exhibition is hosted at The Station in Calitzdorp which serves as a shapeshifter space in which projects that serve the community such as spaying animals, fundraising events, art projects, and, much more are hosted. It is a beautiful historical building that shapeshifts to serve in numerous ways and I find such charm in that.

In September of 2023. I was delighted to be awarded the Art on Track winner of the year.
The Station, Calitzdorp, in the little Karoo
This little town stole my heart, it is situated in a harsh, semi-desert environment with old wordly historical buildings dotted all over the landscape painted in the most unexpected array of colours.
Route 62
Calitzdorp is on the Route 62 map, and, if ever in the area, visiting the outskirt farmstall called Calitzdorp fruit is a must. They have an amazing community school which is solely run by amazing community individuals and funded by the working farm and charity donations.
