Artful rhino project creates awareness

A crash of 16 rhinos, painted and decorated by local artists, has taken up residence at the Table Bay Hotel, aiming to raise awareness against poaching, and at the same time, showcase the artists’ work.

The little rhinos, part of the Artful Rhino project, are displayed in glass boxes in the hotel’s lobby and entrance, were previously displayed at the V&A Waterfront, where over R100 000 was raised by selling t-shirts bearing prints of the colourful rhino sculptures.
