EXHIBITION: ‘ANGELS 6’

 On Sunday, 11 December 2011 at 11h00, Grande Provence Heritage Wine Estate, Franschhoek will showcase its annual Christmas exhibition, this year themed ‘Angels 6’. Selected contemporary South African painters, sculptors, printmakers, photographers and designers will show their work in The Gallery and The Cathedral.

A percentage of the sales from The Project Room will go to the Pebbles Project, to enrich the lives of children from disadvantaged backgrounds in the Winelands. This project presents the vehicle for support and training to children from local wine farms, especially those whose lives are affected by alcohol abuse. Shani Marais will also present a photographic series themed ’Twelve Images at the Gallery’, in The Project Room.  

The Shop at Grande Provence boasts a selection of local art, craft, gifts and a range of exclusive Grande Provence Deli products.
