Art Experiences

There is no place like the Karoo Heartland, and our artists tend to dream as large as our big sky above. From the delightfully quirky Walter Battiss – creator of the iconic Fook Island – to beloved Helen Martin’s Owl House in Nieu-Bethesda, each Karoo art experience is unique. There must be something inspiring about our golden Karoo air because the ancient Khoikhoi would use a cave wall to express their creativity in the form of paintings even in ancient times! This is an inspiring and thought-provoking experience for all art lovers.
