Carols by Candlelight

Enjoy a sunset picnic in the beautiful Witwatersrand National Botanical Garden, followed by Christmas Carols led by the Welsh Male Voice Choir of South Africa. Pack the smoked salmon and champagne, grab your picnic rug and cross your fingers that the rain holds off this year. Candles and carol sheets are on sale at the venue and you’re asked to take along toys (old or new) or tinned food for the disadvantaged. Make sure you arrive in time to enjoy your supper before the carols, which start at 7pm.

Tim Hawkinson

This Hirshhorn show in the museum’s ‘Directions’ series is the biggest East Coast display artist Tim Hawkinson has ever had. The exhibition will be an overview of his pieces, which range from distended human figures to minimal drawings all the way to junkyard assemblages of an otherworldly beauty. The museums striking third-floor ‘Directions’ space should provide an ideal setting for patrons to discover an artist and scavenger with a West Coast aesthetic ingrained in his creations.
