Textile designs
A passion for sewing in Nieu Bethesda has found expression in the Arts Centre’s textiles training. Participants are encouraged to think as artists, developing drawing skills and individually designing each piece to express stories and subjects from their own lives.
Impressive achievements include launching our own designer label, Pomegranate, supplying galleries and designer shops in Johannesburg, and taking commissions from around South Africa and the UK.

Christelene told me about the Arts Centre. I was very interested, and I love to be working here. I love the sewing by hand. The people here are all so nice. I’ve made three bags, one sold, one gone to Johannesburg. I’m making a skirt now – with sweets on it.
