"Every child is an artist."
Thanks to Lynne who volunteers her time to make sure our Grade 7 classes receive professional, skilful and fun visual art classes every week. The kids build up a wonderful art portfolio of artwork through the year. Lynne helps the kids create a special folder that houses their artworks, to keep them safe, and is itself a piece of art.
Check out some of their works. We think they're beautiful.
Your support of our visual arts programme at African Angels is so appreciated as we strive to ensure our children receive a well rounded and holistic education at the African Angels Independent School.

Our joyous Xhosa themed 2018 prize giving concert
The Angels and their teachers are now taking a well earned break and we hope that you are too. Our school is closed until the second week of January, and we are busy doing maintenance, and preparing to welcome 134 children back in 2018.
We have had a remarkable year of achievements at the school, and say farewell to our first graduating Grade 7 class as they go onto their high school careers. Our end of year prize giving had a traditional Xhosa theme and it was a joyous occasion.
From all of us at the school we wish you safe and happy holidays and we'll be in touch in 2018.
Love from Lou and the Angels.

Owethu is delighted. Art for Art Exhibition.

Owethu is delighted!
Hello Visual Art supporters!
We posted some time ago about little Owethu, whose artwork was sent overseas to represent South Africa. Well she didn't win a prize, but she did receive a certificate, and by her reaction you'd think she had won first prize! We love that all children are winners with art.
The Art for Art exhibition is being held this Saturday 25 November from 5pm - 7pm at the Ballog in Serenbe, Palmetto, Georgia, in the US. Julia Stahlman is the champion of this initiative that will see artwork from children like Owethu exhibited for sale with all proceeds donated to African Angels Visual Arts program at the school. We are very grateful for Julia and her passion for this initiative. The link to the exhibition is here Art for African Exhibition
As we head towards the end of the school year we are saying farewell to our first graduating grade 7 class who are off to high school in 2018. A new chapter in our grade 7's lives, and for our school.
Thank you for your ongoing support of the African Angels.
With gratitude,
Lou and the Angels
