Creative Competition Call-Out
How do you connect to the Knysna Estuary?
Is it the stillness of the water at dawn? The rustle of saltmarsh reeds in the wind? The flash of silver as fish dart below the surface? Is it a source of food, a place of work, of worship, of childhood memory — or a lifeline passed down through generations?
We want to feel that connection through your eyes, your hands, your words.
We’re launching a Creative Competition to celebrate the Knysna Estuary — our home, our heritage, our Hope Spot. Whether you’re an artist, photographer, or poet, we want to see, read, and experience how you connect to this incredible blue space.
Our connection to nature shapes our behaviour, builds our pride, and gives us a sense of place. It is through this connection that we become active citizens and true stewards of our estuary. And that’s something to celebrate.
