The Museum of African Heritage is a museum in Bel Air, Georgetown, Guyana, "created by the Government of Guyana to collect, preserve, exhibit, research art and artifacts relating to Africa and the African experience in Guyana".[1][2] It was founded in 1985, with the African Art collections of Hubert H Nicholson and Desiree Malik.[3][4] The art collection has since expanded to contain Caribbean art, along with more African art. The museum also has a detailed history of the 1763 Berbice Slave Rebellion, along with artifacts celebrating notable Afro-Guyanese men and women.[5]
