Welcome to the Little Wolf Museum, Hermanus’s tiniest gallery. Located at Mr. Write Tea and Gift Café on High Street, it offers artists a space to showcase miniature installations. This website is where you can learn more about the collection, the artist, and how to purchase a piece directly from the artist.
The name Little Wolf Museum carries a story in its fur. The most visited museum in the world, the Louvre in Paris, is believed by some historians to derive its name from the Latin word lupus, meaning wolf. By naming it Little Wolf Museum, we tip our hat to the Louvre legacy, but in miniature: When you lean in close to peek at the tiny exhibitions, you’re sharing in a tradition of wonder that stretches all the way back to the great museums of the world… just on a smaller, sweeter scale.
There’s something magical about stumbling across a dollhouse-sized museum. In a hard world that often rushes, the Little Wolf reminds us to slow down and try softer.
Located in the heart of Hermanus, home of several magnificent art galleries, the Little Wolf Museum is the perfect destination for art lovers looking to spend a day exploring Hermanus town.
The Little Wolf is a tiny outdoor museum, so it is always “open”.
If you would like to explore its meaning further, please step inside Mr. Write, the Wolf’s curators, during operating hours for a chat!
