CALL TO ARTISTS & ART LOVERS!

The Art Catwalk – February 2027

Join us on [12 February 2027] at the Simola Hotel Country Club & Spa, presented in collaboration with the Knysna Arts Society and Kunst in de Kas.

The Art Catwalk – A Celebration of Art

Originating in the Netherlands, Kunst in de Kas pioneered a unique concept: the Art Catwalk, described as the “first art show on the red carpet”. This innovative format brings artists and their creations into the spotlight in an entirely new way. In the inaugural event, 26 artists, dressed in black and/or white, presented their work as they walked the red carpet, sharing the stories and inspiration behind their creations.

Following the success of its South African debut, the Art Catwalk returns for a second edition in Knysna, continuing the exciting collaboration between Kunst in de Kas and the Knysna Arts Society.

Presented in the style of a fashion show, this distinctive evening will see participating artists walk the red carpet with their artworks before presenting their pieces for guests to admire and purchase. Guests can also look forward to an elegant atmosphere, fine wine tasting and gourmet catering.

A professional artist will once again be appointed as selector and curator, ensuring a considered and inspiring collection of works. Through narration, video and/or an MC, guests will be introduced to each artist's creative vision, mission statement and artwork.

Artists and art lovers are invited to be part of this unique celebration of creativity, collaboration and artistic expression.
