What to expect
Visit Cape Town’s new destination for art, culture, and food. The Norval Foundation is a contemporary art gallery and sculpture garden set on a protected wetland with stunning views of Table Mountain National Park. The gallery features art from Africa and South Africa, while the sculpture garden is the perfect place to escape the city and enjoy a beautiful art walk in nature. The foundation also includes a play area for children and a restaurant.
Things to look out for
The Norval Foundation is dedicated to protecting the endangered western leopard toad. A species under threat by urban development, there are concrete culverts built beneath the nearby road, allowing the toads safe access to the Norval Foundation’s wetlands.
Helpful Tips
If you want to get in-depth information on the African works on display, join the Free Curatorial Tours which leave from the front desk at 14:00 daily. Or take the leisurely approach and stroll through the sculpture garden on your own. Designed to be appreciated alongside the wetland habitat the museum inhabits, it’s a great way to spend an afternoon. Be sure to have sunscreen and comfortable shoes, as well as a camera. Making the most of the tour, the sculpture garden, museum galleries and restaurant are enough to fill most of the day. Be sure to give yourself ample time to enjoy it all."
