Loeries: Get set for Creative Week

It's that time of year when South Africa's creative community gets together for the most inspirational week of the year, with Loeries Creative Week Cape Town due to kick off on Saturday September 14. This year will see the creation of a Loeries village in the city, as the focus of activities moves during the week from City Hall, to the V&A Waterfront, CTICC, Long Street and finally to the Shimmy Beach Club.
