Are you ready for a little month-end spending, but don't want the guilt that comes with it? 💸
Or are you an art connoisseur looking to expand your collection? 🖼

Then this event is just for you! Join FoMSF at the Charity Art Exhibition and Sale, which will be showcasing artworks made by students, for students (or anyone, for that matter)! 🌠

The artworks will be priced from R20 and upwards, and all funds that are raised will be donated to the Goldilocks and the Bear Foundation for ADHD.

We can't wait to see you there! And remember, the earth without art is just "eh" 🌍🤪
