Dustbin-Art Installation

Cleanest Town Competition

The Dustbin-Art installation came about in 2012 as part of the town s 250-year celebrations. Featuring 120 bins, it runs down one side of Church Street from Gay’s Dairy to the Thusong Centre and up the other side. Great exercise, clean, fresh air and you will certainly know more about the town’s history than you did before starting out.

Die Rooikamp: Geskiedenis van ’n vergete buurt. Gabled houses, the builders and those who dwelt in them. The 1891 Goldrush. Outa Lappies, Jan Schoeman. The natural history of the Robert Gordon koppie. (with a species list).

Die geskiedenis van Prince Albert, wat ook bekend is as ’n belangrike poort tot die Groot Karoo, spreek vanuit die kosbare rotskuns wat hier behoue gebly het tot by die unieke argitektoniese nalatenskap langs die leiwatervore. En uit die eenmalige karakters wat hier tuis was: die Khoisan, die boere en jagters, die dokters en politici, die kerkleiers en onderwysers, die eksentriekes en dielewensgenieters – almal het bygedra tot die intellektuele en kulturele sinergie wat die dorp steeds kenmerk. Die lede van die Prince Albert Skrywersgilde – almalenergieke liefhebbers van die geskrewe woord en bekwaam uit eie reg – het hierdie boek, “Prince Albert – Kweekvallei”, gepubliseer. Die boek van 126 bladsye bied nie net interessante, behoorlik nagevorsde teks nie, maar ook die wonderlikste ou foto’s, tekeninge en kaarte.
