Art at Constantia is a permanent exhibition being curated by Lyn Atterbury and James Hodgson at the beautiful Groot Constantia Wine Estate.
Together they bring years of experience in the Art Industry from working in various Galleries around the country to attending courses and lectures in curating and collecting art with a sharp eye for quality and collection or investment purposes.
Our aim is to provide a platform for established local and emerging Artists to showcase the best that they have to offer in their expressions of paint on canvas. Artists not only enrich a community with the beauty of their work, they also help to educate, inspire and stimulate the hearts and minds of many.
