Minister-designate for Tourism, Culture, and Creative Arts, Dzifa Gomashie, has unveiled plans for the "Black Star Experience," an initiative designed to position Ghana as a leading destination for arts, culture, and tourism.

Drawing inspiration from Ghana’s iconic Black Star, a symbol of hope and leadership in Africa, she highlighted the unifying potential of the initiative.

Speaking during her vetting on Wednesday, January 22, Madam Gomashie said the Black Star Experience aims to be more than just a singular event. It will serve as a framework to celebrate Ghana’s diverse cultural identity, with contributions from communities across all regions.

“The ideas around it revolve around what various districts and regions can do themselves to celebrate what is unique to those communities,” she explained.

Madam Gomashie emphasised that the Black Star Experience would integrate efforts from multiple government agencies and ministries, ensuring a cohesive strategy for promoting arts, culture, and tourism.

“This is an opportunity to mainstream culture, tourism, and creative arts so that departments and ministries can align their mandates with ours,” she stated.

She added that the initiative will also provide a platform for young creatives and cultural activists to contribute, fostering innovation and economic opportunities in the creative arts sector.
