Lynn Quinn, Makhanda Resident
I’ve been to many festivals, and I love the festival. This morning, I did something I’ve never done before, a walk to see all the street art in Grahamstown with someone explaining to us the difference between street art and graffiti and yeah it was just such an eye opener so that was my start to the festival.
