Episode 62 of ‘All About Art’: Art Philanthropy with Joanna Masiyiwa, Global Council Member of the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa in Cape Town

In this episode, I sat down with Joanna Masiyiwa, an African philanthropist and Business Development Officer at Delta Philanthropies, UK.

I spoke to Joanna in depth about her role as a founding member of the Global Council of the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa in Cape Town. This interview was facilitated by AWITA, the Association of Women in the Arts here in London during their annual conference for arts professionals, taking place at Christie’s Auction House with a keynote speech by Koyo Kouoh, the Executive Director and Chief Curator of the Zeitz MOCAA.

Listen on to hear me ask Joanna about why philanthropy is important to her, and what her role entails as a Global Council member of the Zeitz MOCAA. I also ask her about her opinion on the management of the museum since Koyo came on as director in 2019, her perspective on the shared vision of the museum and its future, and so much more. 

Thank you Joanna for coming on the podcast, and to AWITA, Zeitz MOCAA, and the team at Button Collective for facilitating!
