Let's rock and roll baby!

Time: 18:00 onwards 

 
Art, Music, Food and Wine

The 'First Thursdays' concept started in Cape Town in 2012, and in Johannesburg in 2015. 

Inspired by similar initiatives in other cities around the world, the monthly event, taking place on the first Thursday of every month, is centred around a primary programme of art galleries and cultural attractions that are open to the public until late. 

The initiative is equally about access to the arts as it is about injecting life into our spaces. 

Our 'First Thursdays' initiative will be to provide local artists and musicians with a platform to showcase their talents in a comfortable, casual environment, after hours.
