The Ebhudlweni Arts Centre

Since 2015, the FATC operates from the Ebhudlweni Arts Centre on a cattle and trout farm just outside of Machadodorp in the rural area of Emakhazeni, Mpumalanga.

From here the FATC operates its artistic, development and food-security-focus programmes. The Ebhudlweni Arts Centre is a recognised provincial centre of excellence and vibrant hub within the South African and international arts landscape. Facilities include two studios and a Bed and Breakfast venue.

My Body My Space

The FATC curates the My Body My Space Public Arts Festival. The Festival was established in 2015, and is made up of three programmes: a Fringe Arteries Programme, "The Central Nervous System Programme" (CNS) (a selection of commissioned performances) and a Workshop & Training Programme.

From the FATC website:

"It takes place in public spaces throughout the Emakhazeni Local Municipality (ELM), in rural Mpumalanga. The MBMS festival contributes to the process of social cohesion in an area that is still palpably lacking in socio-political and socio-economic integration. It does so through structuring and programming which brings the diverse rural citizenry of Emakhazeni together by perforating and disrupting the familiar ways in which people traverse shared social spaces. The MBMS festival is strongly committed to stimulating the local Emakhazeni economy, growing job creation opportunities and developing a vibrant arts and culture tourism sector in the region."
