      Sabah Museum-Safari Museum
       International Partnership


The Sabah and Safari Museums have partnered to honor the memory of Martin and Osa Johnson and restore their amazing photos to the people whose heritage they celebrate!

To learn more about this partnership and to see photos from the Safari Museum's 2004 Expedition to retrace Martin and Osa's North Borneo footsteps, click here.


The Safari Continues…

On Safari in North Borneo with Martin and Osa Johnson, a proposed exhibition dedicated to the life achievements of these intrepid explorers, authors, aviators, and pioneer wildlife filmmakers, has been designed for the Sandakan Heritage Museum (Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysia).  This exhibition was co-curated by Stella Moo of the Sabah Museum (Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia) and Jacquelyn Borgeson of the Martin and Osa Johnson Safari Museum.  It is the result of the Sabah-Safari Museums International Partnership Among Museums 2004 Exchange Grant Award. The exhibition will be built and the photographs reproduced for public display as funding is found.

 


How You Can Support the Safari…

Funding for the construction of the exhibition and the reproduction of Johnson photographs within it is not covered by the Exchange Grant and is desperately needed to make this project a reality.  If you know of an agency or corporation who could underwrite components of this exhibition, please email! either Stella Moo or Jacquelyn Borgeson.  Private donations would be greatly appreciated and may be sent to:
