About Iziko
Iziko Museums is a renowned brand that operates 11 national museums in Cape Town, South Africa. As one of the premier cultural institutions in the country, Iziko Museums showcases remarkable natural history, social history, and art collections housed in magnificent historic buildings, which are considered national treasures. The brand's name, Iziko, meaning 'hearth' in isiXhosa, symbolizes its transformation and commitment to being a space for all South Africans to connect, share stories, and pass on knowledge.
Iziko Museums fosters cultural interaction and dialogue by creating receptive spaces for visitors to engage with the collections. The brand celebrates heritage while creating new cultural legacies for future generations. With three collections represented by the 'hearth' logo, Iziko Museums offers accessible learning opportunities through education programs, public programs, and exhibitions.
They also host temporary and traveling exhibitions, expanding their reach beyond Cape Town. Additionally, Iziko Museums provides libraries with free resources for researchers, students, and knowledge seekers, along with a digitized image database. The brand's core values include ubuntu (community engagement), Batho Pele (putting people first), communication and information sharing, partnerships, service excellence, trust and respect, and transparent financial governance.
