South African Artists Community

SAAC is inviting all artists from different provinces to join the artists' march on the 14th May 2025 to the Union Building & the Deptof Sport, Arts & Culture. Artists are saying "Enough is Enough" #NosurrenderNoretreat #Wewillnotbesilent #ARTISTSMATTER #creativesdeservebetter

Lets hear your response

@GaytonMcK @SportArtsCultur ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! We call upon the department to release the outcomes of the January call of Mzansi Golden Economy now! #MinMcKenzieStopIgnoringUs #ReleaseMGEResultsNow! #CreativesDeserveBetter #TransparentMGE

@pookiepolls Let the nation know artists are being treated unfairly by @SportArtsCultur and @GaytonMcK

REMEMBER THIS GUY? He made a whole pile of hateful, dehumanising, and threatening statements against white people. Rate the sincerity of his apology from 1 to 10

@BafanaSurprise @Julius_S_Malema ARTISTS ARE ALSO CRYING. We are unemployed and unfair funding applications are imposed on us by @SportArtsCultur and @GaytonMcK

@NespyThemba @GaytonMcK @eNCA

@MkhontoweSizwex @MkhontoweSizwex @Our_DA Artists are crying and @GaytonMcK wont listen

@ANCYLhq ANC must speak on how @GaytonMcK treats artists. He wont listen to us no matter how many times we have written to his office. ANC put him there, therefore ANC must make him to listen to us. #Artistsissuesmatters #Weneedaministernotadictator #MGEProcessesarenotfair #SAAC

Its sadly true that learners were not given food, I’m absolutely livid. I will have answers before end of the day, provisions for meals & accommodation is standard at these events. We will also make public the amount that was given for food & accommodation.

I give all praise to God🥹🙏🏾
