Crafters are invited to submit their proposals to participate in Beautiful Things 2022, a showcase of master crafts in a lush indigenous Mpumalanga forest. Presented by the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture (DSAC) and the Graskop Gorge Lift Company, this three-day craft exhibition will take place at the Graskop Gorge in March 2022. All artists in the craft sector are invited to submit entries
in the following disciplines: ceramics, beadwork, wirework, wood, jewellery, paper, fabric painting and printing, quilting, leatherwork, pewter, glasswork, embroidery and mixed media. The Beautiful Things exhibition was conceptualised in 2001 when South Africa hosted the World Summit on Sustainable Development. It has since been hosted in a variety of settings and venues, showcasing an assortment of high-quality hand-crafted products sourced from South Africa’s nine provinces. The hybrid 2022 iteration will comprise both a physical and a virtual component, for maximum reach and exposure.
