Art appreciation and #AfricaMonth

With the opening of the impressive Zietz MOCAA in September last year, and the recent opening of the Norval Foundation in Steenberg this April, Cape Town's reputation as a cutting edge art destination is firmly taking root. Terry Levin reports on a recent visit to the Norval Foundation, as well as why we should continue to support the arts in South Africa.

In other top story news, I interview fashion designer and 2018 Design Indaba Emerging Creative Thandazani Nofingxana, Chelsey Hale gives seven African countries to visit this #AfricaMonth and Cari Coetzee reviews the new menu from 1On19.

We've got tickets up for grabs to the ninth birthday bash for Park Acoustics featuring Francois Van Coke and Jack Parow!
