The Maboneng Township Arts Experience strongly resonates with a movement quickly growing in South Africa. It speaks of public spaces, social integration and freedom of movement. It enables citizens to equally share public space and build healthier, sustainable and integrated communities.
Following the success of the Maboneng Township Arts Experience at eMadedeni in KZN and Alexandra Township, Johannesburg. The lights will now shine brightly on the infamous township of Gugulethu the pride of the Western Cape, the province where tourists are always drawn to like a moth to a flame! The most colorful and enchanting of all townships, Gugulethu is known for its spirit of ubuntu, its residents are a formidable team that has worked closely together from the get-go. This is what drew the Maboneng team to Gugulethu, staying true to our legacy of linking like-minded townships and cities as an integral part of cultural transformation. We intend to add to Cape Town’s hub of cultural activity, leaving our mark on the street of NY 147 and NY 144, a short distance from the popular Mzoli’s.
