Cape Town is just one of those cities that is effortlessly cool but also it’s abuzz with art. From street art to new galleries, the city is South Africa’s art hub. Head down to the Woodstock area to take in some of the country’s best urban and street artists with Coffee Beans Routes or pop into the city’s CBD for First Thursdays which opens up the city’s galleries for free views, exhibitions and openings.
For something more local, the Iziko SA National Gallery has a permanent South African art collection and wonderful garden to explore this diverse country’s history.
And you can even get your art kick from your hotel. Award-winning Cape Grace has one of the city’s largest and most important private art collections and will sit next to the new Zeitz Museum of Contemporary African Art when it opens later next year. The hotel’s staff are on hand to advise and guide your holiday so you take in as much art as you want, all under the iconic silhouette of Table Mountain.
