International Museum Day was on 18 May, an annual event that emphasises the crucial role that museums play in society and the 2023 Art Craft + Museums Map will show you where to go!
Why not catch up this weekend with what Cape Town has on offer: hands-on engagement, excitement, exploration and discovery, all while being sheltered from the chilly weather. There is something for everyone, so the whole family is welcome to tag along.
A good start is to heck out the Iziko Museum Route on the 2023 Art Craft + Museums Map
Iziko Museums of South Africa consists of 11 national museums, each with its own history and character. Iziko is an isiXhosa word, meaning ‘hearth’, is also understood as “the centre of cultural activity”. The museums that make up Iziko, are spaces for cultural interaction – igniting connections between our shared history, our heritage, and each other.
Other museums on the map include the iconic Zeitz MOCAA, Robben Island Museum, Cape Town Diamond Museum, Cape Heritage Museum, SA Jewish Museum, Norval Foundation, and Rupert Museum. Let’s not forget the Nelson Mandela in Cape Town – Legacy Exhibition, and Truth to Power Exhibition.
ENJOY!
