Good learning experience
Though larger and more diverse collections are housed elsewhere, the hands-on traditional drums and other musical instruments are the highlight of this modest collection.

The museum was packed!
The museum was packed! Passed by mid Friday afternoon and the museum was full of bus loads of school kids. It's wonderful they have an opportunity to visit (but it was so busy that I decided to visit the Uganda Society library instead. What lovely, precious old books ???

If you have time it is a maybe, but don't go out of your way.
This museum was the most disappointing of the national museums I visits (Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda). It is more akin to a cultural museum and not a history museum. There is no references other than 1 panel to colonization and the post-colonization history. It is a good way to learn about the different tribes, but the info gets somewhat repetitive.
