Sukume Museum

The Sukume Human Dignity Centre next to the Walmer Township (Gqebera) consist of a creche, feeding scheme and hand craft project to assist people from the nearby township.  The centre recently started a small museum to help visitors understand the township and the culture of the Xhosa people.  They still have a lot of different plans for the centre and the museum, but as they do it out of their own pockets its a slow and ongoing project.

  3. Oops - the above comment was intended for the next post! I work faster than my computer does. But this one is most interesting too - I wish more townships would get involved with tourism as they really are so uniquely South African and fascinating.
