The National Art Gallery of Namibia (NAGN) is situated at the corner of Robert Mugabe Avenue and John Meinert Street in Windhoek, the capital city of Namibia. Before independence in 1990, the coordination of visual art and crafts at a national level was carried out by the Arts Association of Namibia (AAN). From the time of independence in 1990, efforts were underway to create a National Art Gallery of Namibia.
