BRAAMFONTEIN AKA METRO CENTRAL WED NIGHT
It seems that the REVIVAL of Braamies is finally happening! Two recent openings of two very different kinda projects by two very similar kind of people… Let me explain.
A group of intrepid visual artists, Donovan Pugh, Andrea Moys and Ross Drakes have just kicked off the conceptual phase of what looks to be an awesome venue called ME…
TRO LAB. They’re a strategic collective of creatives, that have taken over a space on the corner of JUTA and JAN SMUTS avenue in Brammfotein where they plan on showcasing a whole lot of digital art, animation and graphic design to the sounds of a big music system in a space created by visionary artists – This is their first phase which they like to call the CONCEPTUAL phase and they’re inviting people to the launch of the project on Wednesday 16th March. It’s a chance to network, meet people, get support and spread the love. The venue is still very rough, industrial with an underground feel – but there’s a cash bar available. WE LOVE THAT! We have 2 pairs of tickets to give away so get email the EDITISTA if you want them!
Then there’s the fabulous artist ANDREW BANNISTER, who made his home in Braamies a long time ago – you may have seen some of his work in the CELL C in the city campaign… He has just opened a new HOTEL in Braamfontein called METRO – I don’t have much more infor yet but we’re going to check it our tomorrow – WILL UPDATE THIS SPOT!!! Mhhhm it gets more and more interesting!!!
