The Zeitz MOCAA (Museum of Contemporary African Art) is arguably one of the most creative institutions in Cape Town, not just because of what’s on the walls and floors, but because of what is created within it, not least in the educational wing.
AND SO THE STORIES RAN AWAY was initially an exhibition of art for children held back in 2019. Four years later it’s become a series of children’s books – a collaboration between LIESL HARTMAN, Zeitz head of education, and artists and ‘story carers’, JILL JOUBERT and MERIDIAN BERNDT. The series of four little books are
to be officially launched at the Zeitz on July 20th – but Woman Zone’s own publicist and librarian Beryl Eichenberger, who had something of an input into the series herself, spoke to Jill and Meridian at the WZ Book Club to get some more of the back story.
