|July 12, 2025
THE Artscape Women's Humanity Arts Festival returns this year with a powerful lineup of events, performances, and community engagements, all centred around the themes of healing, representation, and active peace-building.
Held annually in August to mark Women's Month in South Africa, the 2025 edition invites people of all genders, backgrounds, and beliefs to engage in the vital and often challenging work of building a more just and inclusive society.
From theatre and film to panel discussions and wellness activations, the festival offers a platform for voices often marginalised or unheard.
Events throughout the month speak to the personal and the political - foregrounding stories of identity, resilience, and dignity.
This story is from the July 12, 2025 edition of Weekend Argus on Saturday.
