On the art museum which is housed inside the basement of YABATECH School of Art, Design and Printing, Omokungbe said it was the first of its kind.

“The art museum will serve both cultural and education purposes, with the intent to teach, train and be a resource space for both researchers and learners,” he said.

He said the institution had produced famous artists who he praised for their contributions towards the realisation of the project.

He thanked the Ford Foundation for its assistance and donation of $100,000 for the project.

He canvassed the aid of well-meaning individuals, corporate organisations, stakeholders and friends of the college for the forthcoming launch of N50 billion Endowment Fund to assist the college in upgrading and improvement of its infrastructure to boost  learning and research.

Lagos State Commissioner for Tourism, Arts and Culture,  Mrs. .Uzamat Akinbile-Yusuf, lauded the college for scoring another first with the initiative.

She urged the institution to collaborate with the state government to put the Museum to good use.
