Nice Bag Lady

“Are you selling?” Teachers have often asked me when I came to school adorning a full plastic carrier bag. As it is common place in Ghana to be doing more than your day job and selling something to make a profit! So it got me thinking, and now I’m off to sell these bags in the UK to try and raise a wee bit of cash for some more exciting art projects and our new reading club.

The designs featured on the ‘Nice Bag’ are the original work of five pupils from the school: Vida, Ebenezer, Adaglo, Bisson and Edmond. They are inspired by traditional woven ‘kente’ patterns and we hope they bring a bit of Ghanaian culture to you.
