The 14th edition of the Chale Wote Street Art Festival is set to take place from August 19 to August 25, 2024.
This year, the festival will again be hosted in Osu, following its relocation from Jamestown last year.
The event will traverse the same route as last year’s festival, beginning at Independence Square and extending through Osu’s various landmarks, including the High Court, Osu Castle, and Oxford Street.
The route will loop back to Independence Square, incorporating key points such as the Osu cemetery traffic light and Accra Sports Stadium.
Osu, one of Accra’s oldest neighborhoods with origins in the early 19th century, remains a vibrant hub for the city’s commercial and cultural activities.
In the previous edition, Black Star Square in Osu showcased open-air murals created by both Ghanaian and international artists.
These artworks were inspired by the 1835 rebellion of enslaved Afro-Brazilians in Salvador Bahia and their historical return to Ghana, Togo, and Nigeria.
Organizers are now inviting vendors from various sectors—including art, technology, design, sports, and food and beverages—to register for this year’s festival. Interested parties should contact the organizers at 0209733031, 0539607842, or 0504737978 to secure their spots.
