Our Story


At Stone & Sahara, we explore the cultural life of African cities.

Stone & Sahara was created out of a belief that the intellectual and artistic life of African cities is rich, layered, and worthy of the same quality of attention as any other city in the world.

We invite you into a more considered way of seeing African cities.

What we offer:

City Guides

Collectible cultural guides to African cities. Each guide is beautifully made and includes a list of Museums, Archives, and Cultural Institutions, Cultural Foundations & Foreign Cultural Institutes, Galleries, Art and Exhibition Spaces, Architecture, Film and Cinema, Libraries and Bookstores, Music and Performance Art, Cafes and Gathering Spaces, Heritage Hotels and Spaces, Public Spaces, Monuments, and Spaces for Reflection, Design and Craft, Cultural Calendars, Reading Lists, Film Lists, and a City Playlist for each individual city. Perfect for the culturally curious travelers, returnees, expats and residents alike. [Coming Soon]
