Cape crusader

Article Abstract:

Dynamic and imaginative art designer Jack Lohman has been given the task of updating and carrying forward the national network of museums throughout South Africa in the new millennium. Lohman believes by starting with museums in Cape Town, he will gradually begin to expand his philosophy of business, vision and financial backing to slowing build up a strong network of museums. He has many hurdles to overcome in his drive to improve the educational quality of the museums, such as racial inequality.
