What People Are Saying About Fowler Museum at UCLA

In Short – Tucked away on the UCLA campus, the galleries are quiet and intimate. While many ethnographic museums can seem a bit dry, these topical exhibitions, along with the knowledgeable staff, provide a rich look into unique cultural customs from around the world. A deceptively small exterior hides one of the country's largest collections of African artifacts. Thousands of objects offer a glimpse into the religious and social experience of tribal living. The museum also presents touring exhibitions, including rare finds from Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas.

I heart the Fowler
by justinehere
The Fowler Museum makes me even happier to be at UCLA everyday. I work on campus, and I really look forward to my lunch break visits there. The museum boasts an impressive, and gorgeously presented, collection of cultural artifacts from Asia, Africa, the Pacific, and the Americas. I just saw the "Art of Being Tuareg" exhibit featuring truly amazing art and everyday pieces from the Tuareg Saharan nomads.
