THE BRITISH Council will conclude its Words and Pictures (WAPI) series with a festival dubbed ‘I Rep Africa,’ at the Coconut Grove Regency Hotel courtyard on May 8.
The festival is a celebration of what it means to be young and African in the 21st century. It’s an event for Ghana’s established stars to come together with the stars of tomorrow, to have fun and network.
There will be performances by R2Bees, alongside Ghana’s best young WAPI artistes and underground Ghanaian musicians. There will also be a fashion show and spoken word poetry.
Other activities will include an expert discussion panel for young creatives to learn from the professionals, acting workshops, craft fair, and much more.
This is also a chance for the best artists to win star prizes by showing how they ‘Rep’ Africa in their chosen art form.
If you are a visual artist, musician, spoken word artist or photographer, you stand a chance to win a place in the British Council’s Creative Entrepreneurs Training scheme, worth GH¢1800.
All entries in visual art and photography will be judged before the event. Spoken word poetry and music will however battle it out on the day of the event.
There will be an opportunity for young, upcoming creatives and artists, to network with the experts in the field.
A panel of professionals in journalism, broadcasting, photography, music and advertising, will also be there to share their experience and give tips on how to survive in the industry.
