This landmark museum is part of Wits University, although located outside campus walls in Braamfontein. Home to an extraordinary collection of African art, including contemporary and historical art from across the continent. WAM offers a dynamic programme of events and exhibitions, whilst maintaining a fantastic permanent collection.
The museum's archives contain more than 12,000 items ranging from paintings, watercolours, photography and etchings to large sculptural pieces and traditional artworks from across Africa, and as such only a fraction of the collection is ever on display at any one time. The Museum also has an excellent value cafe serving light meals and refreshments.
