Summer in Nungua


We're on our way to Ghana for the summer.

Ghanaians are so upbeat. They are already planning for the World Cup in 2014. The other day a Ghanaian told me that when he was growing up they would use cabbages as soccer balls. The kids had no idea that you were supposed to eat them.

That's all changed now and cabbage stew is a favorite served over yam.

To continue the metaphor, we have a lot on our plate. Dates with Ghanaian and visiting potters, textile enthusiasts, teachers and the Nungua kids.

We'll also be getting ready for the kids 2nd gallery show. This one will be in Philadelphia.

Our first book has gone to press....just a short one and the second longer book is being researched.

More when we come back. We hope you have a great summer.

Remember to be creative!
