Messy Monkey is like a splash in the pool, a chinese fire drill, or perhaps (for some?) a good shot of whiskey!

What a great idea! A unique, fun, & cool experience for all ages & seriousness levels...You have a wonderful service that no one can rival." - Alex A., Google

Experiencial Events * Installation Art * Intriguing Catalysts to Creativity
And sometimes...A beautiful concoction thereof!

In addition to offering our CRE8s as on-going fundraising events, we execute one-off projects like this fascinating installation/photography combo. Kelly, Messy Monkey Founder, & Cape Town Photographer Inge Prins are putting together a fresh & intriguing photo series of images shot all over Cape Town, in the likes of: Desmond Tutu jumping on a bed, & 6 oak trees in the Company's Gardens covered in fabrics of all different kinds during Cape Town's Fashion Week. They will auction the photos off sometime in November or December, giving the proceeds to the Tertia Kindo Arts Project, a dance school in Ocean View (Cape Town, South Africa). And, they are in the works of lining up some form of publication for the collective images be it the form of a book, calendar, postcards, or all of the above. They are currently looking for sponsorship themselves, & are in the meanwhile thriving on this project, eating up every second of it!

cre8:

8 artists. 8 canvases. 8 minutes:

A Fundraising/Painting Extravaganza like none other.

Imagine: a gallery filled with wine & appetizers, like many a fine installation you've been to before. Mix that with a dj playing 8 beats for 8 minutes, while 8 artists move from canvas to canvas, painting with 8 different unconventional tools, be they turkey basters, toilet bowl plungers, or brooms. Impressively, the work turns out full of energy, with enormous amounts of CRE8tivity & color flying around the room. We do both a raffle & a live aution on the collaborative & individual works made.

We offer Cre8 to non-profits looking to raise funds in a more than creative way, and/or to businsses who want to get involved & help sponsor those they are interested in. Artists range from professional artists to celebrities to business CEO's. You decide who's best for you.
