Ateljee
Continuing the family’s passion for art, the Ateljee is an exciting creative space for guests to engage with artworks, artists and makers.
Please Note - Easter Weekend & Winter Closures:
We will be closed to the public on Friday, 11 April 2025. Over the Easter weekend, we will be closed on Friday, 18 April, and Monday, 21 April (Family Day), but will remain open on Saturday and Sunday. Additionally, the complete La Motte Farm Experience will be closed for installation from 30 June to 8 July 2025.
Autumn is a season of quiet transition. After the rush of harvest, the land exhales, embracing stillness before the winter rains arrive. It is a moment of reflection, a natural landmark in the cycle of seasons.
Landmarks, the new exhibition in the La Motte Ateljee, explores the idea of landmarks through two distinct yet deeply connected materials: leather and watercolour. Each, in its own way, marks time, preserves history, and tells a story of the land.
Visitors to the La Motte Ateljee can expect warm, earthy tones and textures reminiscent of rich soil and the full-bodied hue of red wine, marking a seasonal shift and a landmark in time. The exhibition also includes a series of engaging workshops, and visitors can purchase products crafted by the featured artists at the La Motte Farm Shop.

You can take your completed artwork home, or place it back onto the wall to create a collective painting (we will return it to you by courier after the exhibition).
Cost: R450 including a glass of wine or a non-alcoholic drink from the menu.
