The activities in this workshop series have been inspired by Zeitz MOCAA’s current exhibitions: A Protea Is Not a Flower featuring the artists Lerato Shadi and Robin Rhode, and Afflict the Comfortable, Comfort the Afflicted featuring the artist Cauleen Smith.
Join us at Zeitz MOCAA’s BMW Centre for Art Education this March/April for an exciting season of children’s workshop activities over the 2026 Autumn school holidays. Activities are offered at various degrees of complexity to accommodate different skill levels and age groups, ensuring maximum fun and engagement.
Parents and guardians, you are requested to deliver your child/children to the reception area where they will be registered. You will be guided to the venue on the day. Please do not leave your child/children unaccompanied in the reception area.
Workshops are open to all children and teens aged 6 – 16 years. Children will be registered at the beginning of the class and only parents and guardians will be allowed to sign children out when they want to leave. Younger siblings (5yrs or younger) must be accompanied by parents or guardians at all times should they wish to participate in the workshop activities with a brother or sister. We welcome teens who would like the opportunity to create amongst and alongside younger children.
This holiday programme is offered in an open studio format where children can choose from a variety of activities at multiple stations.
Children will be accompanied to the bathrooms by a studio assistant at all times.
On each day, the workshop will begin between 10 am and 10.15 am and run uninterrupted until 1 pm. Children may also take a break for a snack in between activities.
Children are reminded to wear activity clothes, but aprons will be provided.
