Such an incredible delight. The clothing is of the very best quality fabric and tailoring. There are many beautiful ready to wear pieces, and they will also quickly tailor something for a perfect fit. I had two pieces handmade in just a day. Our very favorite part of beautiful Saint Louis.

Art gallery residence featuring works of South African and Australian world renowned artist Loman Pawlitschek. Many of the artworks are created from 3-D multi dimensional designs. Temporary exhibitions include the work of local artists presenting urban pop art. Home furnishings and accessories are also on display.
Loman Art is a beautiful and inspiring art gallery where you'll get the chance to discover emerging artists from Senegal and the whole continent and sometimes even see them at work. Loman, the curator, is very kind and welcoming and loves sharing her knowledge about art and Africa. Definitely a must see!

Set up in 1972, this gallery is a "MUST" while visiting Africa. It is dedicated to African tribal art. On 4305 Ft2 are displayed the late Marthe Everlé and Claude Everlé Collections dated from 1963 : wooden masks, figures,stools & beds from West & Central Africa, Benin & Dogon bronzes, Terracottas... We exhibit artists from the Dakar School of paintings and sell 18th Century glass beads' necklaces.
Don’t let the name put you off. Gallery Antenna was started 50 years by the current owner’s father who was a salesman for 3M throughout West Africa. He was self-trained and had an excellent eye . The collection is extensive, organized by country/tribe and each piece is documented with its provenance and history. Excellent prices too! Also have paintings but they are new.

Everybody visiting Dakar goes there, and for a reason! Better going in dry season, I was lucky enough to be there on a day in which the colour was particularly strong. The contrast with the white of the salt piles, makes the scene even more surreal. Drawback: the car hadn't stopped yet, when 3 men called from outside suggesting different, expensive, ways of having a tour. A walk was my choice, nonetheless I couldn't walk alone, a man came with me, said I could go on my own, and of course asked me for money at the end.

Amazing place where you will find real artists painting. No hassle. No hard sellers. To the contrary none lf them would adress you unless you do. Sadly this place is being confused by some reviewers with Village Artisanal which really is unfair as the latter is a very commercial touristic area with no original art creator (and very pushing traders!). Some of the reviewers actually visited Village Artisanal instead of Village des Arts!

Located off a main road, the Mosque of the Divinity is extremely evocative for its architecture and view. A long staircase will bring you from the main road to the Mosque, otherwise you can go down via cab. I really enjoyed strolling around the Mosque, but unfortunately I did not have the chance to go inside as it was closed

According to the local guides, the building is now a hospital run by nuns but it used to be a slave house owned by a lady born of a white Portuguese man and a black virgin slave. Being a child of the slave owner, she had the power to own and sell slaves. This is one of the many relics of the slave trade.
