The Postcard Project

 

Join us in showcasing the rich and diverse heartbeat of Muizenberg. Get involved by contributing words, photographs, illustrations, paintings, history... anything really. These will then be collaged into a series of postcards with the intention of celebrating the many positive aspects of living, visiting and being in Muizenberg.

This project is collaboration between False Bay Tourism and Business Association, Communitree and the people of Muizenberg

Funds raised will be managed by False Bay Tourism and Business Association and channeled towards further creative community projects.

Our idea is to create a set of postcards which are collages made up from a multitude of images or words collected through the contributions of the community.

Themes: Love Muizenberg - celebrating life next to the sea and mountain, surfing, skating, climbing, the diversity of the surrounding nature, the good old days, creativity, eco-awareness, community, cultural fusion, photographs/scans of artworks, poetry, or lines of writing.

Aims:

• To create an exciting new image of Muizenberg: created collectively by Muizenberg.
• To link the abundance of creativity in the area directly with Tourism.
• To draw attention and celebrate the many positive aspects of living, visiting and being in Muizenberg.
• Create postcards that would attract the kind of person/ tourist who would make an
effort to visit this place and explore the rich diversity of life here.
• To visually create an end product that is a culmination of many inputs form a wide
spectrum of the community.

MID has provided us with some seed funding which has gone into the making of the postcard stands and initial printing.  We hugely appreciate their support at helping to get the project going.

If you would like to contribute:

Our stands cost R150 to make. If you would like to support the project you can contribute towards more stands being made which will help us to get the postcards in more sites around Muizenberg.
