Surrounded by mountains in the heart of the Great Karoo, Middelburg is unique, yet similar to the average Karoo town.
The area is recognised for its herbal plant life that grows naturally in the fields, and is also one of the few, and best, places in the world where fossil life has been discovered as well as San Rock Art in caves from the first known human inhabitants, the San Bushmen.
Scenic beauty is the town's main asset, with Open Spaces, Karoo Sunsets, Star Gazing, Fresh Air and Snow-capped Mountains during the winter months.
The purpose of this festival is to promote
Arts and Culture in the Community by providing a platform where
the whole community has an opportunity to broaden their skills
by being taught various art and craft forms and so enable them
to use their newly acquired skills in real life and thereby
creating jobs. |
