The Visual Arts Network of South Africa (VANSA), with the support of the Department of Arts and Culture (DAC) is pleased to announce the launch of the Best Practice Guide for the Visual Arts in South Africa. The Best Practice Guide was developed out of the need to share and develop industry practices that would support healthy and ethical relationships and transactions between practitioners in the industry. The guide is written to give all people involved in the visual arts an understanding of the practice South Africa should be aiming towards for the betterment of the Visual Arts. Commissioned by the Department of Arts and Culture and written by Visual Arts Network of South Africa, the Guide is intended to support a growing and strengthening Visual Arts field. The content of the guide is extensive and covers as many fields as possible to be as accessible as possible to all. It covers a range from sales, to insurance, to taxes, to marketing and social media to the rights of practitioners in the field. We expect it will be invaluable for many people to better empower themselves to make knowledgeable decisions. The Director of VANSA, Molemo Moiloa, comments on important content in the Guide; “We are very excited to launch this guide and make it available to the South African Visual Arts Community. The Guide is aimed at giving people as much information as possible so that they can take the paths they wish to, equipped with an understanding of where those paths may lead”. The guide strongly recommends the use of written agreements in all relations for the arts – something that is not yet usual practice for artists and gallerists. The guide also makes a case for ensuring artists are paid in every circumstance possible to encourage the professionalisation of creative work and the betterment of artists’ livelihoods. The guide is aimed at all practitioners across South Africa and will be available online. VISIT THE VANSA WEBSITE TO DOWNLOAD YOUR FREE COPY NOW. Workshops will be held across South Africa where copies of the Guide will be given to participants. These Workshops are also free and will give attendees a better understanding of how to use the guide. The workshops are hosted by partners of VANSA throughout South Africa. Workshop dates and venues are listed below. The workshops are supported by the National Arts Council.

Book and wrapper in good condition.    >>>    A wonderful peep into the past and some of its social history. Much to amuse and delight. The book has a wonderfully antiquated feel. Some might deem it old fashioned but there are some wonderful images and turns of phrase that are still worth looking at. I thoroughly enjoyed it.    * Art * Poetry *  *N.B.*  If you buy more than one book from me on the same day you only pay R 6 extra postage for each of the additional books - See what else I have to offer, it might just be worth your while.    

I have a passion for working with words and turning writing nightmares into easy to read understandable articles. While managing the publicity and media relations at a large corporation for many years, I discovered the great need for cutting through confused literature and turning messages into clear, correct and attractive content. This need encouraged me to use my talent and offer a service that finds the right tone and words to make you look good. Your image is important, you need to get your message right the first time, let me help you! From different angles, I am comfortable working on various subjects. I specialise in editing, writing, re-writing and proof-reading media releases, booklets, biographies, letters, newsletter, reports and stories about people, programmes, projects and events. I thrive on populating social networks with relevant images and content. I have excellent relationships with print, digital, radio and television media. I managed the publicity for international award-winning programmes; Shift, Skeem Saam, iSpani, 90 Plein Street, Each One Teach One, One Day Leader, Raise Your Hand, It’s for Life, Khululeka, Lucky, Soul Buddyz, Takalani Sesame, Take 5, Tsha Tsha, Yizo Yizo and many others. Clients include Funama Productions (wedding and small business expos), Amka Products (beauty and religion), Bright Media (education), Mindpool Productions (entertainment), Rito Consulting (banking and engineering), The Underberg Studio (botany ceramic art) among others.

An amusing, vibrant, informative theatre production based on mathematics concepts for both school learners and the general public. The 60-minute show brings maths to life through theatre, humor, music, dance, with the hope of inspiring learners and the general public to consider the importance of maths in their everyday lives. It’s in our music, our technology, our art, our homes, and even in our nature. ‘PASCAL’ is part of an educational outreach program of PHEPHINKA TEHATRE, a theatre company that creates educational and issue-based theatre. ‘PASCAL’ reveals how maths is everywhere in our world. This Mathematics Theatre project is integrally linked to the Department of Education’s Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) specific aims and skills. Links to CAPS on this project will also give the learners the opportunity to develop: a spirit of curiosity and a love of Mathematics; an appreciation for the beauty and elegance of Mathematics; a critical awareness of how mathematical relationships are used in social, environmental, cultural and economic relations; the correct use of the language of mathematics; number vocabulary, number concept and calculation and application skills, listening, communication and problem solving skills. Join us at The STABLE THEATRE on the 5th July 2014 at 13h00 as we raise awareness about the importance of maths and celebrate the power of Mathematics.
