A few of my favourite things

Close your eyes and imagine somewhere wonderful and fantastically magical. It could be anywhere, real or imagined. Then, bring it to life in a work of art. Your masterpiece could win your school R3 000 and be featured in Santam’s Child Art Calendar 2017.

HISTORY Santam’s Child Art Project started in 1963 to give children an opportunity to express and present their thoughts and ideas creatively. In an active effort to fulfil the need for art education in disadvantaged communities, Santam has joined forces with the Ibhabhathane Project (www.frankjoubertartcentre.co.za) to present arts and culture teacher workshops. We also offer free art classes to children from these communities.
