According to their Facebook page, the Decorative Arts Society’s aim is to present a broad range of subjects within the fields of the arts including painting, books, porcelain, silver, collecting, music, interior design and decoration, gardens and antiques.
“Frank Graham is one of South Africa’s most versatile actors/comedians. You may not recognise his face, but you will most definitely recognise his voice. In his lecture, Frank Graham will evoke memories of the heyday of Springbok Radio. Besides popular series like ‘Men from the Ministry’ and ‘Taxi’, we enjoyed plays, music and quiz shows. Without television, radio became an essential part of our lives,” said the orga3nisation.
