“International Museum Week celebrates history, culture, and heritage by giving museums globally the opportunity to showcase their collections. It is an important month to promote a museum-going culture in South Africa. It is also an opportune moment to give communities the power to write their history and to re-imagine their own heritage at a time where culture is dynamic and constantly changing. “
– Chief Curator of the James Hall Museum of Transport, Gaisang Sathekge
