Enrol for museum summer school
2008-01-10
THE Summer School for Iziko Museums of Cape Town will be officially opened on 31 January, at the Iziko South African Museum. The main aim of the programme is to engage with society on issues of environmental, scientific and cultural concern. A symposium on 2 February will discuss issues revolving around climate change. Aside from films that tackle environmental controversies, several films will be screened that present thought-provoking perspectives on recent South African history. Iziko Museums is proud to present an exhibition of the Timbuktu Manuscripts of Mali. These important manuscripts have provided an insight into an African heritage and culture of writing and reading that existed long before recorded colonial history. The exhibition at the Castle of Good Hope will be complemented by a Summer School symposium on 9 February focusing on the significance of the manuscripts. For further information about the programme, contact Wandile Kasibe at 021-481-3804/13 or email wkasibe@iziko.org.za or publicprogs@iziko.org.za.
