Our Projects
Isithatha has been hands-on since the commencement of our trust. Upon acquiring our theatre property, we have taken on numerous initiatives in striving for our vision.
01
Arts Programmes
Theatre and arts training is provided through local arts funding, volunteer teachers & community-led initiatives. We aim to provide training in all sectors of the arts, with a focus on performing arts & theatre practices.
02
Our Theatre Space
Our heritage building is a hub for our local arts community, where we host training & workshops, as well as venue hire for external events.
03
The Friendly City Food Market
A monthly Saturday market featuring local vendors, where we also drive a unique genre of entertainment, from African drumming, poetry to traditional Xhosa choiring. THE MARKET IS ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
04
The Book Shack
We have a small bookshop that raises funds for our project, but also provides our members with access to free books as required. We encourage any donations of books to continue with this effort. You may donate books to our Book Shack by contacting Sharon to arrange a time to drop them off.
05
EarthBound
A large section of our garden is being tenderly cared for by EarthBound. Here, fruits, vegetables & herbs are growing abundantly & we hope that this space will be a reliable food source for our local community in the near future.
