Join Alhambra Library for a craft inspired by Africa.

By Katlyn Ong

Originating from Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire in West Africa, Adinkra are symbols that express concepts, proverbs, and aphorisms in Akan Culture. These symbols are often used to stamp onto cloth and other various crafts. Use paint and canvas to create your own Adinkra art piece to convey a concept important and meaningful to you.

This event is part of the annual Summer Reading Challenge–explore new cultures, stories, and places one page at a time as you read around the world with the Alhambra Library.
