Exhibition brings message of hope
The exhibition will be showcased at the art oasis at Nelspruit Laerskool throughout the week and is open for the public to enjoy.
Art has the ability to change the way people look at life, to bring us together and to change the way we feel about one another. That was Innibos Lowveld National Arts Festival’s marketing manager, Sandra Jacobs’, message at the opening of the Walk Tall – the Right to Hope art exhibition.
At an exclusive event at the Mpumalanga legislature, 15 giraffes conveyed a message of hope and rising above bad circumstances.

“Giraffes create in us a feeling of hope and reaching greater heights,” Jacobs said.
