An
innovative project funded by the ARP is providing new skills to Alex
artists. Frank van den Ham-Msimang a world-famous glass artist
volunteered his knowledge and skills to train 9 artists in the art of
glass fusion. A workshop was set up in the Yurona building on Watt
street with an oven and other equipment provided by Frank. The artists
set to work, making glass panels depicting life in Alex which are now
being installed in the Alexandra Heritage Information Centre. |
