Seminar on art in public places at the Infecting The City Public Art Festival

The Africa Centre, the Gordon Institute for Performing and Creative Arts, and Creative Cape Town will host a free seminar on the Friday morning of the festival to address the various issues that affect public art policies and how these policies have become pivotal instruments for negotiating how public life is enriched through art. Speakers will range from artists to city officials and the seminar will be held at Hiddingh Hall, University of Cape Town Hiddingh Campus starting at 9.30am.

As part of the Africa Centre's development programme, "Arts Aweh!", Infecting the City will also transport 400 scholars from schools across greater Cape Town to the city centre to engage and interact with the festival and its artists.
