About

Ghana’s story lives in its archives.
For the first time, materials spanning 1802–2019—photographs, documents, newspapers, films, audio-visuals and records—are being presented together in one landmark exhibition.

A year ago, Dikan established the @awoinstitute to preserve, conserve, and research Ghana’s archives — the histories long neglected and at risk. Since then, we have digitized and processed millions and millions of materials: state and military archives, colonial documents, slavery documents, highlife & traditional music, chieftaincy records, cultural histories, and more. Now, this work comes to life at Dikan Ahenfie, a palace of memory, storytelling and community.

Preserving Ghana opens December 13, 3pm at Dikan Center, Accra.
