An interesting museum and a must see. Located in the Dakar city centre. The museum building (A.D 1938) presents a typical Art Deco character. Great architecture. Two floors of exhibitions. A collection of interesting and handmade exhibits from West African countries. I highly recommend a visit. It is really worth seeing the handmade exhibits like funeral masks, terracotta statuettes, drums made from animal skins, and many other art wooden works. These are beautiful objects. It is worth make a notice, that the artists who made all of them did not have (not use) a metal tools that are currently available and used for this type of artistic craft. I visited the Théodore Monod African Art Museum (part of IFAN Museum of African Arts) in January 2025. My top recommendation.

You can find more (and more interesting) items in an upscale souvenir shop. The exhibition is very small, of limited artistic and/or historical significance and quite expensive (5,000 per person) for what you get. I hope sometime they will invest in acquiring a good collection. Senegal/africa has produced much greater art than this. There were maybe one or two objects that made an impression (photos). Little too no explanation. Sometimes the marketplace pricetag was still on the art.

Very small exhibition and only one floor. Second floor seems to be under renovation. Took 10 minutes walking through all. They have but a few artifacts, but very little informative display other than brief description of each item. "Magic bottle from Guinea" for example. And it was quite expensive to enter at 5.000 for foreigners. Would not recommend the detour unless you're in the area.

Although Google map was indicating it as open, it was closed. Front entrance was open and there was no one to provide information. There were staffs sitting around but no one cared to provide any information. There was one art expo inside and we could see that.

Really wonderful museum in Dakar. Veronique was an excellent guide and explained so much about the art and Senegalese culture in general. The art is exciting and pulled from different countries all over Africa.
