Die galery het 'n tuiste geword waarin kunstenaars, versamelaars en die publiek as 'n gemeenskap saamtrek om hul verhale, lewens en kreatiewe praktyke op artistieke wyse aan te bied . Ons is trots daarop dat ons lae opdrag vir kunstenaarsuitstallings bied, om alle kunstenaars te bevorder, hetsy gevestig of opkomend, en ons hooffokus is om 'n vertelling te plaas dat erfenisse deur die kunste gebou kan word. Dat alle kuns waardig kan wees om 'n beleggingskuns te wees. Die skep van volhoubare ekonomieë en lewenslange nalatenskap wat 'n inkomste sal oplewer lank nadat die skepper weg is, en 'n opbrengs op die belegger vir die kunsversamelaar het.

The gallery's continuous vision aims at promoting a cross section of established and emerging South African artists in a variety of disciplines. Drawing on the ever-present talent and energy of its country's visual artists, the gallery has found its niche within the South African art market, as well as providing an environment that is enjoyed and supported by artists, patrons and collectors alike. Included in the gallery's vision have always been the concepts of sustainability and development, and as such Gallery on the Square has played an integral part in the support and promotion of a number of highly successful development projects, namely the Ardmore Ceramic Studio, Mapula Embroidery and MonkeyBiz. By providing these projects with exhibitions the gallery has not only gone a long way towards raising their profiles and collectors' awareness, but also bridged the gap between what is considered high art and craft. Together with a business partner, Gallery on the Square has also forged a strong relationship with the Artist Proof Studio and provides an annual exhibition for their final year students, thus providing the foundation, and often ongoing exhibitions, for a number of its success stories, namely Phillemon Hlungwani and Nelson Makamo. Over the years the gallery has also been successfully appointed as Art Consultants and suppliers for various corporate projects and collections.

The art of pewter work is practised in all corners of the world. It has a large "Hispanic" connection. "Repujado" (Sp. to push out.) or "Repoussé" (Fr. Driven back, raised in relief) for all intent and purpose are the two most common words used when referring to this craft. The traditional "Repoussé" technique historically practised by the pewter-smith or metal-smith was a far more physical craft usually practiced in a workshop environment by a highly skilled craftsman. Thicker sturdier metal was used. The marks or indentations into the metal were made with hammers and chisels. A pitch was used to support the metal whilst working. The metal was annealed from time to time during this process. The modernized version practised today by the "home" crafter uses softer thinner metal sheets, making it far easier to produce a similar finish. Here the need to fill the back spaces is necessary, because of the softness of the metal, as well as the use of a blank to give support. The tools used are more of the hobby crafter type. This modernized version is an exciting and fulfilling hobby requiring few tools and a small work space.
