OPERATION HOURS
ZOMA MUSEUM is a dream inspired 25 years ago by the timeless and structurally sound vernacular architecture of Ethiopia and other parts of the world. It is named after Zoma Shiferraw, a young artist who died of cancer in 1979.
The museum acts as a bridge between artists and architects from around the world to create cutting-edge ecological art and architecture. In this context, Zoma Museum is built using ancient yet still existing construction techniques. The building materials include mud, straw, stone, wood, and cement.
OUR MISSION: Sharing multidisciplinary and innovative contemporary art and architecture with anyone from anywhere. We are focused on researching and learning from ancient knowledge of art production, architecture and landscaping and bringing it to the present in a Eco-sensitive art institution.
The activities of Zoma Museum include a gallery, library, children center, restaurant, coffee-shop, gift-shop, vegetables, herbs, flowers and trees garden, elementary school, amphitheater and animal farm.
OUR FUTURE: Building a quality construction educational center with special focus on ancient construction techniques and responsible management.
