Construction Of The Art Village At Kawukudi

Since the government made its intentions to revive the then concept of the Nkrumah government, concerns have been raised over the fate of artisans at the Accra Arts Centre, (a market popular for the sale of made in Ghana items which include art and fashion accessories) located at the proposed site for the project.

Currently, more than seventy percent of the land has been cleared. The Project Management Unit of the Marine Drive Tourism Investment Project and the Ghana Tourism Authority have relocated most of the Government Agencies to the Ghana house, and the only thing left is to relocate the Accra Arts Centre.

There are over one thousand (1000) artisans operating in that enclave. And we have them in the plan for the Accra Marine Drive project. They will be relocated to a site at Kawukudi, in Accra, where they can continue their trade.

Work at the Art Village at Kawukudi is moving steadily.
