The very first Blooms & Brushstrokes Festival burst to life in a whirlwind of colour, music, and creativity.

​

Nearly 1,500 tickets were sold and R300,000 raised for local charities — a dazzling debut by any measure.

Ten homes became vibrant hubs of art and inspiration, where exhibitions, live music, food vendors, and magical moments unfolded at every turn.

​

Artworks found new homes, hearts were stirred, and a new East London tradition was born — one filled with wonder, warmth, and imagination.
