Durban - New art talent hidden in Durban communities and outlying areas made its first appearance yesterday.
The Velobala Fine Arts Development Programme awarded 25 artists certificates yesterday, Friday, while their artwork went up for display in a new exhibition at the Phansi Museum.
The exhibition is regarded as an opportunity, especially for collectors, to buy early artworks by some outstanding artists at a reasonable price. It was curated by Phindile Mkize.
The programme was hosted by the African Art Centre (AAC) with funding from various donors to provide opportunities to aspiring artists from disadvantaged communities.
