About

My intention is to re-calibrate your thinking and previous knowledge about Africa, its history, culture, and people. The African Museum is a cultural landmark designed considering what is called Afrocentrism and Afro-futurism. A masterpiece curled from African objects, history, culture, lifestyle, spirituality, and aesthetics. Located on the complex of the National Arts Theatre, Surulere, Lagos.

The museum is purposely designed to highlight Africa, tell the true stories of its history and culture, educate people about Africa, display African-inspired works, encourage the African way of life of communism and social interaction. The museum is to become an icon for African design, designers, researchers and to improve the overall urban situation of its surrounding cityscape as well. The African museum; a celebration of African heritage and civilization!
