“Intle Art is a non-profit organisation focused on the artistic-entrepreneurial development of creative young people from the Imizamo Yethu and Harbour communities of Hout Bay, Cape Town, via which artistic youth are mentored in the development of their creative skills and have the opportunity to participate in exhibitions and public art projects, community development initiatives and, most importantly, to earn income from their creative pursuits.
Linktank’s regular financial donation is immensely valuable to our sustainability, contributing meaningfully to our ability to provide our artists with meals, transport, and artistic supplies needed to create marketable art and host exhibitions toward revenue generation. In addition, our longtime relationship with Linktank has enabled us to develop partnerships via which our artists have access to essential skills development opportunities, such as financial literacy programmes.” – Gillian Bower, Director
