Organized for African and people of African descent, it aims to encourage the development of the African Continent and establish the truth about the history and contribution of Africa and her people using the vehicle of Arts and Culture.
As the first black African colony to achieve Independence from the British, Ghana stands dedicated to the ideals of Pan-Africanism, and is home to famous Pan-Africanists such WEB Du Bois, and George Padmore. The Mausoleum of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah stands as a strong memorial of the call to oneness of the Continent.
