Arts & Culture – Breede Valley Municipality
Development, NewsArts & Culture
Die Breedevallei is soos in sy visie staan, ’n plek van uitnemendheid. Die area kan spog met uitblinkers op verskeie terreine, insluitende die kunste – bekroonde skrywers, digters, akteurs, skilders, beeldhouers, komediante, sangers.
Verskeie kunstenaars in die area het ’n nou band met die Hugo Naudé- Kunssentrum en Kleinteater in Russellstraat, Worcester. Die Sentrum het ’n erfstuk vir die dorp geword wat op 28 Mei 1959 tesame met 53 skilderye en ets-werke deur die destydse stadsraad in ontvangs geneem is, amper nege jaar na die dood van die vermaerde skilder. Die woning is tot ’n kunssentrum omskep. Die erf langsaan met ’n ou wyn-stoor daarop wat as werk-ateljee deur Hugo Naude geruik is, is ook deur die destydse Hugo Naude Vereniging aangekoop. Die wyn-stoor is later as ’n teater, vandag bekend as die Kleinteater, ingerig, waar gereeld toneelopvoerings gehou is. Die huidige munisipale raad, het die Kleinteater in 2012/13 opgradeer. Die Hugo Naude-Kunssentrum kry tans ’n nuwe verf-laag.

As stated in the Breede Valley’s vision, it is a place of excellence. The area boasts achievers in various areas, including the Arts – award-winning writers, poets, actors, painters, sculptors, comedians, singers. Several artists in the area share a close bond with the Hugo Naudé Art Centre and Little Theater in Russell Street, Worcester. Nearly nine years after the death of the famous painter, the centre was inheritance by the town, as the then City Council took it into possession on 28 May 1959, together with 53 paintings and etches housed within it. The dwelling was converted to an art centre. The open space alongside it, containing an old wine storage facility that was used as a work-studio by Hugo Naude, was also purchased by the then Hugo Naude Association. The wine storage building was later converted into a theater, which today is known as the Little Theater, where plays are regularly held. The current municipal council upgraded the Little Theater in 2012/13. The Hugo Naude Art Centre is currently getting a new layer of paint.
