Hermanus South Africa
Shopping
Hermanus offers a wide variety of shopping experiences.
An excellent starting point is the market at Lemm's
Corner. Here the visitor to Hermanus can buy local &
African treasures, home made delicacies, art, clothes,
gifts, jewellery, beadwork, crystals, and interesting
gifts to take home with them.. A stroll through the
streets of Hermanus will lead you past second hand book
stores with treasures of bygone years to the most
upmarket boutiques with hip & modern stuff – simply
beckoning to jump into your parcels. Shopping in
Hermanus almost always leads past one of the many
restaurants, coffee shops or pubs where you can rest
your feet & quench your thirst.
Art Galleries
Art galleries in Hermanus South Africa have mushroomed
at the same rate as
wineries! Hermanus is
home to many famous artists and the late great Marjorie
Wallace spent her last years in this quaint seaside
village.
Creativity abounds in Hermanus South Africa and the
lure of Bacchus is a huge contributing factor in getting
those creative juices flowing!
Sculptors, goldsmiths, ceramists, photographers and
writers have put Hermanus South Africa firmly on the
international map as a destination of choice for lovers
of art.
But the proof is in the pudding and do pay a visit to
the galleries nestled in Onrus amongst the Milkwood
trees. Misson House belongs to the sister team of Glenda
Pope and Lee Wepener, both passionate about art and
Hermanus and this duo possess a vast knowledge of each
and every single piece of art on display in their
gallery. Relax with a cup of tea afterwards at the
Mission House tea garden. Also in Onrus is De stijl and
the Atelier d’art.
The Hemel-en-Aarde Village should be your next stop as
there are a number of galleries. Erna Dry at Hornbill
House is a must see. Erna’s work is the sum of many
parts. From a young age she was enchanted by stories,
myths and fables, all these elements are captured in her
work. Erna is captivated by the deep complexity of all
of us. “We’re all the same.” Then of course there’s the
influence of others, for her artists like Klimt is a
source of inspiration.
Also pop in at Gallery Sixty Four and Southern Art.
Joshua Rossouw is situated in Harbour Road and Philip
Harper Galleries in Main Road. From there visit Geta
Finlayson's Harbour Gold Jewellery store and the
adjacent Village books where owner Sue McNaught has
sought out all the best of books to keep you laughing,
thinking & informed.
