Brief info
CEO and founder of Afromusée
Mushagalusa Chigoho, executive manager and founder of the Afromusée, is recognized as a passionate collector of African art. With more than three decades of experience in the cultural field, both in Quebec and internationally, he has led a multitude of varied projects, ranging from exhibitions to shows, including literary evenings, conferences, artistic residencies and thematic workshops.
Its deep commitment to the creation of unifying events, which highlight the richness of African cultural heritage, has enabled it to establish solid partnerships with various organizations, public and private institutions, as well as with artists and the general public.
Convinced of the transformative power of art as a tool for education, unification and awareness of social issues, Mushagalusa launched Espace Mushagalusa in 2014, an art gallery and a platform for open dialogue on diversity. From this initiative the Afromusée was born in 2017, a museum institution whose mission is to promote knowledge of Africa, Africans and Afro-descendants, as well as their cultures and heritage still alive throughout the world.
