How Do You Imagine Africa?

Exciting times at the Penn Museum. The museum is hosting a year long project called "Imagine Africa" as a research project to discover what people want to know about Africa.

They will use this information to curate and re-install their African Collection.

The current African Collection at the Penn Museum is one of the largest in the country.

How can you contribute and shape the story that is told of Africa?

1. Visit the Penn Museum and check out the African Collection. Freely give your comments on the installations, participate in discussions and workshops, and engage with museum staff and other visitors to contribute to the project.
   
2. If you cannot visit the museum, then take the really fun "Imagine Africa" survey and answer the question, "How Do You Imagine Africa?" The answers to this survey as well as the information collected from the visitors to the museum will be used to determine the story that the new African collection will tell the world.
