On Saturday 27 September 2025, The Old School and The Wisdom School in McGregor will come alive with the sights, sounds, and scents of tradition.
The Lost Trade Fair is a celebration of heritage. A place where forgotten skills and timeless crafts return to the hands and hearts of today. Last year, visitors watched as mud bricks were shaped from the earth, brooms bound with care, candles dipped in wax, thatch laid with patient skill, and wool spun into thread. Each act a reminder of the artistry once woven into everyday life.
This September, we gather again to honour these trades, to share stories, to taste the flavours of local kitchens, and to fill the afternoon with music, laughter, and community spirit.

An Invitation to Become Sound
What if healing wasn’t something you chased,
but something you tuned into?
At Sounds Divine in McGregor, the Monochord Table invites you to lie down, let go, and listen. As strings are gently played beneath your body, waves of harmonic vibration move through your cells — dissolving tension, expanding awareness, returning you to your natural state.
It’s more than music.
It’s resonance. Stillness. Homecoming.
A one-hour session offers deep relaxation, inner clarity, and the quiet magic of remembering yourself.

Sounds Divine, 4 Darling St, McGregor

R800 per session
A place where you become sound, and sound becomes you.
