Highlights from the 2019 Chale Wote Festival.

One of our favorite events in Ghana, the Chale Wote Street Art Festival came to a close last week. As we mentioned in a previous post the festival is an "alternative platform that brings, art, music, dance, and performance out of the galleries and onto the streets of James Town, Accra." This year's festival looked amazing. Check out CNN's write up on it and some amazing pictures of Chale Wote 'street style' from the Guardian. We included some of our favorite pics from this year's festival below.
