Museum of West African Art (MOWAA) moves beyond the notion of the museum as a building and research as purely academic knowledge. In its very essence, it will be a living institution relevant and connected to the contemporary. It will expand public space and bridge traditional divides of heritage and living culture, demonstrating a strong continuum between past, present and future.
