Unique Photo Project Celebrates the People of Melkhoutfontein enters its second phase

In 2018/19 Hans, Chair of our sister organisation Dreamcatcher Nederlands, embarked on a project taking over 200 portraits of residents and their homes in Melkhoutfontein – with each family receiving their own portrait. The images were also collated in a book and featured at the Festival voor het Afrikaans held in The Hague, Netherlands.

Hans was recently back in the community for phase 2 of the project taking portraits of residents living in the new housing development. Over 100 portraits were taken, again with each household receiving a copy to adorn their new homes. Hans and Coby are regular visitors to Melkhoutfontein and we are indebted to them and at all Dreamcatcher Nederlands for their ongoing support.

Thanks to Dreamcatcher Kamamma Elmordine for coordinating the photos and community members for participating.
