Interesting choice of art pieces on display. The gallery is centrally located and easy to get to for tourists. A quick stop as its curated artworks fill 3 only medium sized rooms and one of the galleries is not open at the time of publishing this. You need to climb up and down 1 flight of stairs to see all the artwork. The staff members were very helpful and friendly from the moment we stepped into the museum to the moment we left, They were also readily available to answer all our questions. A must-see for all art lovers visiting Windhoek.
