ABOUT THE CRAFTERS CAFÉ

Crafting is a centuries-old pastime which brings communities together. At The Crafters’ Cafe, we offer a safe, comfortable and fun space to turn off tech for a few hours, engage in the creative process of crafting, take time for mindfulness and reconnect with community. The Crafters Cafe also has a halaal-friendly kitchen which offers delicious real food, as close to the source as possible, catering for herbivores, carnivores, gluten-freers and vegans.  Great food, good coffee, excellent company: a winning recipe for lovely memories and reinvigoration!


?Your facilitator: Linda Strydom is a Cape Town-based artist working predominantly in acrylics on large scale canvasses with diverse subject matter. Her art is vibrant and funky. Linda studied art at high school, working in all mediums including Tempera paints, pastels, charcoal and pencil. A good few years after she left school she attended private oil painting and pottery classes. Once her children were older, she attended evening painting classes at the Frank Joubert Art School. With a few additional art courses under her belt, she continues to experiment and research different techniques. Linda now exhibits her work in various galleries in Cape Town and is regularly asked to do private and commercial commissioned works.
