Lusaka, the capital and largest city in Zambia, can be a confusing and chaotic place for visitors not familiar with its unplanned neighborhoods and streets. Busy stores and shopping centers line Cairo Road and the surrounding area. Nearby covered markets sell anything from souvenir figurines to spare engine parts. Just south of Lusaka is the Munda Wanga Environmental Park, which features botanic gardens, a wildlife park and sanctuary, picnic areas, swimming pools, and a relaxing terrace bar.

37d Gallery is located within a beautiful contemporary building in the Kabulonga area. The gallery holds a wide range of art works by both local Zambian artists and international artists. The Gallery is non-profit organisation which in turn supports the stART Foundation which is a charitable trust dedicated to the generation and promotion of visual arts practice and arts education in Zambia.
My fiancé and I ended up in Lusaka with a few days to be tourists. We found 37D on trip advisor and figured we would spend 30 minutes there. 2 hours into our visit, we were already planning our next trip back! To start with, the staff here are all welcoming and friendly. The various forms of artwork are all presented with the title, artist, and price in US dollars. It is in a modern building with indoor and outdoor spaces. There is even a section with children’s artwork and all of the proceeds go directly to the children and the program that works to provide children with art classes, which in turn helps children to pay school fees. Next to the art gallery is a gem gallery. We had the pleasure of talking with the owner who showed us the largest mined tourmaline and explained to us how jewelry is made from the wide selection of Zambian-mined gems. Then we found ourselves in the cafe, where we each had a coffee and a treat (banana bread and a chocolate cookie). Here we were able to casually look through the gift store and chose a lovely pair of earrings. It was hard to chose just one gift item as everything is so lovely and supports Zambian businesses that employ local people. We will definitely be back on this same short visit because they even have yoga a few days a week for k100 which takes place in a gorgeous outdoor area.

The museum is a good place to visit if you are interested in knowing more about the history of Zambia. If you are an art lover, it's an exciting place to visit.
