Ghana Culture Week Recap
In this newsletter, we recap Ghana Culture Week and share some exciting news for the coming quarter.
Accra Art Week
March 29, 2026
March is special for various reasons. But this year, Independence hit different. It felt like a renaissance of sorts. All around the world, Ghanaians and friends of Ghana celebrated in style, pomp and pageantry. Year after year, Ghana has cemented its reputation as a beacon of artistic and cultural heritage for all people of African heritage. The significance of this was never more pronounced than the passing of the United National resolution to finally and for the first time acknowledge slavery as ''the gravest crime against humanity''. From Nkrumah to Mahama, Ghana leads the charge upholding the dignity of people of African Heritage.
For us at Indelibl Arts, we marked this heritage month in our own way. March presented us with the opportunity to represent Ghana abroad with a curated experience we dubbed Ghana Culture Week, an extension of Accra Art Week. The event featured art exhibitions, film screenings and the Ghana-Czech culture forum.
