In association with BirdLife South Africa and Delheim Estate you are invited to spend an inspiring morning with us on one of our most celebrated Wine, Heritage and Nature Estates.
This experience is designed for adults but would be appropriate for art minded pre-teens and teenagers too.
Delheim Wines stands as a testament to a legacy deeply rooted in nature, spanning over seven decades. The ethos of conservation and emphasizing sustainable farming practices in wine making has always existed on Delheim.
Our seasoned bird guide for the morning will be Daniel Engelbrecht who is currently pursuing a Degree at the University of Stellenbosch. "My pursuit of birds has taken me to some exciting destinations over the past few years, including Australia, Turkey, Madagascar, Mauritius, much of southern Africa (Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Namibia, South Africa), the Southern Ocean, and the neotropics, in countries including Panama, Brazil, and Argentina."
We'll start the morning off birding and meandering the majestic foothills of Simonsberg in search of our most celebrated birdlife. This will be followed by a delicious MCC Bubbly & Brunch at the Restaurant after which we will sit together and be guided through an immersive and enlightening workshop of Creative Expression, inspired by the act of flight.
Fine Artist Jeanne Hugo champions the use of only the finest natural inks & pigments and will teach you simple strategies to connect to your own art-making flow through the power of nature.
This event promises to leave you incredibly enriched and inspired!
*Please note that this is not your typical art class and it not necessary for you to be able to paint or draw.
