Committed to developing a sustainable contemporary African art ecosystem, FNB Art Joburg’s public programme prioritises various points of participation and access to information. Aware of the tier that children usually occupy in the contemporary art ecosystem, FNB Art Joburg not only welcomes children, but it offers all Johannesburg-based schools and students access to the fair at a discounted price. At the fair, parents and teachers can look forward to walking tours especially curated for school-going children.
For example in 2023, children who visited FNB Art Joburg through the Gauteng Art for Public Schools tour engaged with the fair by finding the most inspiring artist: a vote that went to painter Georgina Gratrix. Extending beyond the fair, the very same children then met Gratrix earlier this year. Organised by FNB Art Joburg in partnership with Stevenson, the afternoon included a private preview followed by the chance to reinterpret the artist’s work.
