The intimate Johannesburg garden exhibition returns for its second edition, bringing together original local and international art in a relaxed setting designed for collectors, first-time buyers and art lovers
Johannesburg’s art scene moves beyond the traditional gallery this weekend as Art in the Garden returns to Parktown North on Sunday, 11 October 2026.
Now in its second year, the intimate garden exhibition offers visitors the opportunity to discover a curated collection of original local and international artworks, all available to purchase.
A more relaxed way to discover art
Hosted at a private home in Parktown North, Art in the Garden takes a refreshingly informal approach to collecting. Rather than the conventional white-walled gallery experience, artworks are presented within a relaxed garden setting where visitors can browse at their own pace.
The concept is equally suited to established collectors looking for their next piece and first-time buyers curious about beginning a collection.
For those who simply appreciate art, it is also an opportunity to spend a Sunday morning surrounded by creativity and discover works that might otherwise not cross their path.
Art for established and emerging collectors
The appeal of Art in the Garden Johannesburg lies in its accessibility. Collecting original art can sometimes feel intimidating, particularly for those buying their first work. By bringing art into a residential environment, the exhibition creates a more personal way to engage with individual pieces and imagine how they might live within your own home.
With both South African and international works forming part of the curated selection, visitors can explore different artists, styles and perspectives – and perhaps leave with something they love.
