Art Alive Art School

Our hearts are full of gratitude after another incredibly successful Art Alive Art School Annual Exhibition.

A very special thank you to Jani de Beer and the Benoni City Times for the wonderful support. Jani visited our school before the exhibition, shared our story with the community, attended the exhibition herself, and then wrote this beautiful article. We are so grateful for the time, care, and encouragement you have shown our school and our artists.

This year’s exhibition was an overwhelming success. Together we sold 126 artworks and 88 Charity Squares, with every Charity Square helping to make a difference in our community.

To our amazing students, thank you for the passion, creativity, and dedication that you poured into every artwork. You continue to inspire us.

To our talented teachers, thank you for your guidance, encouragement, and commitment to helping every student grow as an artist.

To all our families and friends, thank you for your constant support, for attending the exhibition, and for encouraging our artists every step of the way.

A heartfelt thank you to the Benoni Art Society for generously donating beautiful Charity Squares and helping make this fundraising initiative such a success.

Thank you to everyone who donated pots of delicious soup and so many other generous contributions behind the scenes. Every act of kindness helped make the exhibition a warm and welcoming experience for our visitors.

A very special thank you goes to Marius Marx, whose countless hours of technical support, problem solving, planning, and behind the scenes work made the exhibition possible. Your dedication and unwavering support never go unnoticed.

Although the exhibition has come to an end, the excitement certainly hasn’t. Our studios are already buzzing with creative energy as new canvases are being painted, fresh ideas are taking shape, and another exciting chapter begins.

Thank you to everyone who played a part in making our 16th Annual Exhibition such a memorable celebration of art, community, and generosity. Together, we truly brought art alive.
