The African Art Museum is a smaller museum located behind the Smithsonian Castle. The exhibits are very interesting and include masks, jewlery, paintings and sculputres. The gift shop has some really interesting things too such as lamps, jewlery and reprints of the paintings. The museum is very well laid out but did seem more crowded since it is a smaller building. It is definatly worth seeing and I almost always go when I am in town.
