Come see Ghana through new eyes! 

Step beyond the usual tourist experience.  Let StudioMate immerse you into the everyday sights, sounds and tastes of pure Ghanaian culture. Together, we will travel through hundreds of years of tradition as you experience hands-on immersion into Ghanaian pottery, textiles, basket weaving, glass beading, music and dance.  You will engage all your senses as you experience each pulse of the drummer as your own, breathe in the fragrance of traditional foods cooked by your hosts and feel your taste buds explode with sensation! Visually get lost in the intricate weavings of vibrant colored threads as you try your hand at the age old art of textile and basket making. Witness this complete panorama that makes an encounter with Ghanaian folklore, artistry, and nature truly unforgettable!

Our core commitment is to lead you deep into the culture of Ghana in a way that your life will be truly transformed.  Renew your love of the arts, gain new techniques, and absorb these timeless traditions into your own!

Our programs are highly specialized and place you directly in contact with more than fifty skilled traditional master artists.  Our educational teacher network covers the length and breadth of the country. You will participate in authentic field education, comprised of workshops in ceramics, textiles, basket making, brass casting, glass beading, painting, drumming and dancing.  As you visit slave castles and camps, forest reserves and waterfalls, you will get very close to the soil that makes up Ghana.  It is our hope that you transport all the stimuli and knowledge gathered on this trip, deep into your heart and mind; into that part that transforms you in a deep and lasting way.
