ABOUT
Let’s meet for lunch
Saturday 28th November 2020
13h00-15h30
Join us - and make it the biggest virtual women's lunch ever in South Africa.
Get your friends together, all bring lunch, and then join us via live-stream @ R75 for a link.
Login to the main lunch taking place in the rolling hills of the Farm Sanctuary in Franschoek, the home to Pigcasso, the world’s only painting pig.
Stay tuned for the panel discussion. It is then that the panelists who are mostly published authors, will discuss the importance of sharing our stories as the first step in the healing process from abuse & trauma. It is as we speak, and share our stories that we heal. This conversation on breaking our internal silence and the reclaiming of self will be facilitated by TV & Radio presenter Tracey Lange.
Then it's time for the fun highlight of the day as Pigcasso herself takes a stroke against domestic violence during these 16 Days of Activism. She will sign her own artwork with her snout and these artworks will then be auctioned. Funds raised will go towards ongoing awareness about domestic violence.

We want to see lots of YELLOW - the colour of the dandelion, of courage and healing.
Dandelion
haughty and strong
I belong
petals proud
and plump with courage,
no bended head,
no withered thread,
instead,
the rise of healing
