National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Mutare
The National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Mutare is situated in a historical building at Kopje house which was built in 1897 and was the first hospital in Mutare.
It was declared a Monument in the late 70s and thereafter became a Culture House under the custody of the national Museums and Monuments.
The historical nature of the building and its situation slightly away from the hub of the city centre renders it a most congenieal setting for the serious showcasing of works of art in the Mutare.
The National Gallery of Zimbabwe Mutare branch was opened in 1999 and has five members of staff under the leadership of the Regional Director, Judy Mutunhu.
The gallery runs an annual exhibitions programme choosing to show a selection of work from the Harare gallery, while offering local artists the much needed opportunity to show their work. In addition hosts an art school on the premises.
