Centuries-old vineyards, Cape Dutch architecture, galleries and wonderful people. There's something undeniably charming about this stunning region.
Known for being Africa's oldest commercial art gallery, Everard Read spotlights modern and contemporary painting and sculpture from South Africa and the diaspora. Its Franschhoek locations (on Huguenot Road, and a more recent space in the Leeu Estates) offer a more up close and personal way to engage with the programme, operating by appointment only. Keeping a dynamic turn of shows and artists, the gallery strives to expose a huge range of fine contemporary painting and sculpture to a broad audience.
