 “Artists reach areas far beyond the reach of politicians"  (Nelson Mandela)

To commemorate Mandela Day today, we invite you to support the TLC initiative through purchasing a work for under R 2,000 from The Student Collection. Each sale goes directly towards the The Vulnerable Artist Fund and the 21 Artists featured in the collection.

Support young artists, they hold the vision for our future 

Take Action, Make a difference, be part of the change.
