Wakkerstroom Art and Craft Ramble in June gets cancelled over Covid-19 restrictions

The organisers felt it would be unlikely that cross-border travel and public gatherings would be allowed, and thus had to cancel the event.  

Wakkerstroom would have played host to its 7th annual Art and Craft Ramble, but due to the Coronavirus, it has been cancelled.

Residents of Wakkerstroom, as well as several neighbouring towns, looked forward to the ‘Art in Motion’-themed ramble with the inclusion of a classic car show.

The organisers felt it would be unlikely that cross-border travel and public gatherings would be allowed, and thus had to cancel the event.

The next Art ramble is due to be held in June 2021.
