Art that provides loving homes to vulnerable children
Support children from Pietermaritzburg’s SOS Village by purchasing their artworks on auction as part of the Art Extravaganza for a Cause event. Art Extravaganza for a Cause gives local artists the platform to give back to their communities, and to support South Africa’s vulnerable children, also helping the children to find their inner creativity and use art as an outlet and therapeutic aid. The workshops also expose the children to art as a possible and viable career choice.
The workshops took place at four SOS Children’s Villages in Mamelodi, Pietermaritzburg, Cape Town and Ennerdale. The children from these programmes each created a piece of art, named it and gave it over for auction. The art auction aims to raise funds which will help SOS Children’s Villages to continue to provide warm, loving homes to the children and youth at the villages, and in the family strengthening programme.
The auction is live now until March 30. By supporting the auction, the public will be making a difference to the lives of South Africa’s most vulnerable children, at a time of greatest need.
SOS Children’s Villages calls for the public to support this initiative, by purchasing an art piece here: https://www.onlineauctions.africa/auctions/#!/
