Ghana is waiting for you

Snow in London-cold in Boston-time to think about Ghana.
We are waiting to greet you.
Want to come to Aba House next summer?
We have an exciting pottery workshop where you can work with the housepainters from northern Ghana, or learn African textile techniques from Ghanaian artisans.
Our neighborhood children would love to have you share your skills with them...and they can teach you a few of theirs too.
We can take you on a tour or you can just relax at our guest house across the street from the ocean.
We have something for everyone, so let's talk! aba@culturalcollaborative.org
