The Dapper Foundation is dedicated to the presentation and preservation of pre-colonial African art. Opened in 1986, the museum gathers works executed during that period, on this continent of richly different cultures - objets d'art, paintings and more. Every Wednesday (and from Monday to Friday during school holidays), young visitors are entertained with story-telling sessions, whilst students, researchers and lovers of this period will enjoy the library of more than 5,500 books, magazines, postcards and other pictures.
