Pniël Museum Skryfskool is a product of Pniël Museum’s endeavours to give people the opportunity to develop God-given talents that otherwise would have gone unfulfilled. The Skryfskool was started in 2018 through the generous support of the ATKV who made a few workshops under the leadership of Dr Diana Ferrus possible. In 2021 the group published Voetspore - `n Pniëlse Digbundel and are currently working towards a second collection of poems.

Join us for a poetry reading by these inspiring women on 24 September. Line-up includes: Guest poet and mentor Dr Diana Ferrus, Shereen Adams, Brigite Cyster, Dr Eleonor Damon, Gameeda Henry, Florence Philips, Anne-Marie Lackay and Urline Williams.

Wren Hinds is a musician and singer songwriter from the east coast of South Africa. He has an honest approach to crafting songs, and a strong live presence in the music industry. Hinds delivers a lush, acoustically driven production which overlaps the boundaries of alternative folk, country, and world music while staying true to his own style as an original singer-songwriter. The harmonic resonance of voice, guitar and harmonica together with a reflective and honest lyrical sensibility, communicates deep profundity bringing meaning and nourishment to an art that has been somewhat neglected in recent times.

Book your ticket & we look forward to seeing you there!
