As part of Play Braamfontein, The Playground’s paint and sip event will be part of the FNB Art Joburg Open City event on Saturday 27 August.
Other food to try out are the vegetarian meals, bunny chow and the breakfast pancakes, perfect if you’re there with children.Everyone is always telling you how effortlessly trendy you are. You love markets and have heard so much about how the scene in Braamfontein is being transformed into a modern multicultural hotspot. If you’re a first-timer, consider going with a friend to orientate you but if you’re flying solo then sign up for a sip and paint class or a cheese and wine tasting experience.
