Baby loves...Horniman Museum


residents of the Horniman's aquarium

Last week to the Horniman Museum in Forest Gate for the Busy Bees storytelling (Wednesdays & Fridays).

Its worth spending a whole day as there's so much to see, and there are wonderful gardens as well.

The Aquarium was fantastic, but my favourite was the African Gallery.

From the website:
"The first permanent exhibition in Britain dedicated to African art and culture, African Worlds celebrates the continent's diversity, history and creativity.

It brings together a rich mixture of sculpture and decorative arts explained through the voices of elders, maskers, drummers, diviners, artists, exiles, curators and anthropologists.

Objects from across Africa are displayed from Egypt to Zimbabwe, and from African related cultures including Brazil and Trinidad."
