/uːˈbʊntuː,ʊˈbʊntuː/
The word Ubuntu comes from the Bantu and Nguni languages of Africa. In my native tongue, Bemba (spoken in Zambia), Ubuntu translates roughly to “humanity towards each other.”

Jackie Mwanza
Founder/ Workshop Leader/Curator
I am a visual artist and educator with nearly 20 years of experience as an art workshop facilitator and adult education tutor.
My personal artwork, which I have exhibited in solo and group shows in the UK and Africa, has been the catalyst for founding Ubuntu Museum. I love creating art, enjoy teaching, and strongly believe that art should be accessible to all—not only on an aesthetic level but also as a tool for change, advocating for fairness and the right we all have to inhabit the world without fear.
