Local Artists are collaborating with the community to Busking for a Cause. Organised in unity to preserve the local creative industry and to help manage the pressure caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. The Independent Artists of Durban in partnership with local organisations and the community have mobilised through campaigning, promoting public art, crowdfunding, as well as audience engagement to develop the Independent Artists Busking Project.
Busking is a very minimalistic method of monetizing one’s craft and introducing Independent Artists to potential clients. Busking for a Cause is a call to all independent creatives to collaborate and find innovative and creative ways to tap into spaces in and around their respective communities.
An invitation is extended to Artists and Art Fanatics in and around Durban to the weekly Vetkoek and Jazz Jam Sessions on Thursdays from 17h00 to 19h00. It’s a great opportunity to network and Jam.
