Open the gates and behold the beautiful mural that invites you into the Nubuke Foundation which celebrates the arts and culture of Ghana. I had the pleasure of speaking with curator, Bianca Manu, in the lovely garden.

I enjoyed my conversation with Bianca and look forward to returning to Nubuke when they are finished with renovations that will add more space for site specific large scale sculptural works.
