Chale Wote Street Art Festival

In the suburb of Jamestown, Accra - the oldest and poorest neighborhood -- an annual street art festival is held, Chale Wote.  I missed it last year but was sure not to miss it this time around.  Two days where artists line the street and just paint - there is a theme.  This time it was Life and Death.  I actually went both days - I was so intrigued.  Just fascinating to walk around, watch street performers, and take photos.  Looking forward to next year already! Enjoy some of my favorite pics from the weekend!

The signs here are too funny
