The Gallery, Ballito Lifestyle Centre opens at 18h00 on August 4, 2022, with an exhibition titled Sistas.

The Gallery says: “August is National Women's Month paying tribute to the courageous women who marched to the Union Buildings on August 9, 1956, in protest against the Apartheid regime's extension of Pass Laws for black women.

“Since then, women have been striving for equality, slowly and surely breaking down patriarchal barriers, and will not stop. Women are connected. There is a sense of spirit which cannot be broken; we are a sisterhood. We are SISTAS.

“This collaboration of artists and poets pays tribute to our SISTAS, encouraging the sharing of stories, creating dialogue, bridging our cultural and gender differences, and connecting us humans all the more - after all this is what it is to be a "SISTA"!”

The Studios, Ballito Lifestyle Centre is hosting "First Thursdays" on August 4 - an all-day event, starting at 09h00 - with the exhibition opening at 18h00. The Studios are offering many promotions, live music, wine tasting and a wonderful visual vibey experience for all the senses.

The Gallery is situated within The Studios, opposite Weylandts at Lifestyle Centre, Ballito.

Opening hours are 09h00 until 17h00. Follow The Gallery on Instagram and Facebook @thegallerylifestyle
