At Cafe 1865, we believe in thoughtful curation — choosing collaborations that bring meaning, beauty, and creativity into our space.
We work with a local art curator Merissa Slingerland to host rotating exhibitions featuring works by artists and creatives. The artworks displayed on our walls are an integral part of the café experience and are all available for purchase, allowing art to be part of everyday life.
We also collaborate with Heart at Work, a South African studio creating handcrafted home décor and gifts inspired by nature. Their pieces reflect craftsmanship, sustainability, and a mindful approach to design, aligning naturally with our values.
Together, these collaborations shape a space that celebrates creativity, intention, and authentic expression.
