Goethe-Institut Ghana is happy to showcase the works of Aku Addy at our Premisis. join us for the Exhibition opening and talk on the 13th of October at 6:30pm.

Stories From Accra is a survey built from the artist's sustained engagement with Accra as both subject and site; the city not as a fixed story but a carousel of patterns. Some immediately legible, others requiring closer attention.

Aku Addy is a Creative Director and Cultural Architect whose work sits at the intersection of culture, storytelling, and design. With close to 14 years of experience in copywriting, storytelling and brand strategy, delivering campaigns for local and international brands, her work is grounded in social listening, observation, and a deep understanding of audience behaviour.

OPEN CALL: MAKERS MARKET 2026
Sustainability, Creativity & Conscious Consumption?

Fashioning Futures brings together designers, artisans, entrepreneurs, artists, researchers, policymakers and consumers to explore how creativity responds to some of today's most pressing social and environmental challenges. Through a vibrant Makers Market, conversations and shared experiences, the event showcases innovative practices emerging from Ghana's fashion and creative sectors.

At the same time, Fashioning Futures invites us to ask difficult but important questions: What does sustainability really mean? Can creative responses to waste and overconsumption become part of broader change? And how might we rethink the ways we produce, consume and value resources? By creating space for both celebration and critical reflection, the event aims to spark dialogue on the possibilities, tensions and futures of design fashion, consumption and sustainability.
