About this audio guide
This guide traces Bryanston Market in Johannesburg back to 1976, when Waldorf-school parent Cindy Spencer set up a table of vegetables by the car park and later pushed a wheelbarrow of carrots street to street with her daughter riding along. You'll hear how that stall grew into the market around you, and how it was rebuilt twice after fires tore through the stalls, once in 1988 and again in 2008. It also follows Spencer's later turn toward ceremonial pottery and the reputation that work eventually earned her.
