A Historic Swimming Pool in Lagos has been Transformed into an Ambitious Cultural Project

The John Randle Centre offers a dynamic, unconventional approach to showcasing Yoruba heritage. Known for its innovative design, the museum presents a profound exploration of Yoruba culture, history, and philosophy. Its impressive collection spans traditional textiles, weaving looms, royal attire, and artifacts related to palaces, paintings, and iconic photographs, offering deep insights into Yoruba aesthetics. Since its opening, the museum remains accessible primarily through special events or formal proposals to the Lagos State Ministry of Tourism, ensuring that only a fortunate few experience its rich cultural offerings.
