High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Held in Cape Town, South Africa Infecting the City is a public arts festival that is committed to making art freely available to everyone. The Festival hosts a range of different types of site-specific art, artistic interventions and performance art in the central part of the City. Each year the Festival takes on a social issue or theme which the participating artists respond to. In 2011, the Festival worked with Cape Town`s artistic and cultural community to present public art under the theme of Treasure. This theme was intended to celebrate the artistic traditions and contemporary practices of the diverse communities within South Africa and to explore Cape Town`s "Afropolitan" reality.
