The main focus of the Cultural Exchange Objective is to teach about the unique art, dance, and music culture of Ghana and learn from those we teach.
Samuel Nkrumah Yeboah, known in Ghana as Powerful, a Ghanaian drummer and drum maker and the founder of Nkabom African Music and Dance Ensemble, is pleased to invite you to Ghana to experience art, dance, and music training offered by some of the best teachers and performing artists in Ghana.
Current Cultural Exchange Programs
Cultural exchange occurs in every program that Project OKURASE implements. When volunteers come to participate in the Village Health Outreach, they come to help with medical care but they also participate in cultural immersion and cultural exchange. Our formal programs focusing on cultural exchange only are two:
1. The Nkabom Cultural troupe
2. Art, Dance, and Music Exchanges
How You Can Help
You can help by coming as an individual or by bringing a group to visit us to take classes and workshops to learn. In return, you can share what you know. You can also make donations specifically to the Nkabom Cultural Troupe to help with expenses or if you are in Ghana, you can hire the cultural troupe for a performance.
