Colours of You SA: Show us your true colours

Issued by Boomtown

14 Sep 2015

An initiative of Gerard Addison, Colours of You SA seeks to promote both artistic talent and all things South African, by bringing people together through art and design.

Last year, the Colours of You exhibition generated a lot of talk and excitement in the creative community of Port Elizabeth, and in its second year, it's looking to generate even more energy and momentum.

Show us your true colours

The call for submissions for 2015 is out, and the team has sent out the brief:

Do you have anything loud, proud or kak funny to say about being South African, which embraces and connects our diverse cultures?

If your work is 'fresh' with a South African touch, and you would like to be part of the Colours Of You SA festival exhibition 2015 submit your work to us for inclusion.
