It’s official! I’m returning to Africa, this time to run my own “Art Safari!” Everybody is welcome, whether you are an artist, want to be an artist, just happen to like art, or just want to go on vacation with me & Matt to Africa for a couple weeks! Email [email protected] if you are in any way interested, they can hold a spot for you (that’s my friend who runs the tours, not my husband Matty, hehe)
March 2019 – we have plenty of time to plan and to save $$ =)
ALL the details are here: http://www.touricatours.com/art-safari-with-jasmine-becket-griffith.html
There is a limit of 20 students/travelers, so I am posting here at Patreon first.
I went to Africa last year (South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia) with some musician friends with the same tour group, on a music themed safari. Matt (from Tourica tours) has invited me to come back and this time hold an Art workshop themed safari.
I posted some pics in February of last year here at Patreon in the behind-the-scenes content – click here to see them:

I have uploaded the official Itinerary as a PDF here at Patreon – click the AfricanArtSafariwithJasmineBecketGriffithPDF.pdf file
at the bottom of this post (or get it from the Tourica website link above).
Tourica Tours (I can speak from experience both as a customer, friend & client) do a simply amazing job of creating a laidback but luxurious, hassle-free way of traveling around Africa. I can’t wait to go back!
I’ll be doing lectures, live painting demonstrations, art workshops, etc. throughout the tour. My husband Matty of course will be coming too (he has never been to Africa and is super excited). We’ll stay in a variety of different lodgings – luxury Safari “glamping”, nice hotels/apartments in Cape Town, fun boat rides down the Zambezi, a few nights right by Victoria Falls (one of the most stunning places I have ever been), & more. The safari drives are amazing, you will see all the animals you would expect to see & then tons more, all out in the wild! (Some of you might remember my elephants story…… 😉 )
It ain’t cheap, but it is truly a trip of a lifetime and worth every single penny & then some. The accommodations are super nice, food everywhere is great (I’m vegetarian and had all sorts of great veggie options everywhere). Let me see – it’s at $6999 which means if you can set aside $11/day until the trip, lol, you’d have it covered…. plenty of advance notice! ;P
I’ll post the basic FAQ in the comments below, there is a lot more detail on the website and in the PDF.
Again -email [email protected] if you have any travel or tour related questions. Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions for me about the art side of things, or about the places we’ll be visiting (as these are all places I love and have mostly visited before in person!).
I hope some of you are able to join me! Again, while it is art themed you do NOT have to be an artist, this is for all skill levels and you can choose however much you would like to participate (or not). The photography opportunities on this vacation are amazing, even just with an iPhone you can get fantastic images. Or just bring your colouring books and colour along while I’m painting =) I’ll be staying in the same hotels, eating at the same table, sitting in the same van, etc. as you all (and Matty of course) so I’m looking at this as a great way to meet some of you in person, get to be friends and have a magical journey.
