A well-respected gallery with three neatly organised floors of painting and sculpture by established and up-and-coming Ghanaian artists. Every item has an official, non-negotiable price label, so this popular gallery might not give you the frenetic experience of the city’s street markets, but it is a safe bet to find quality items while ensuring a fair amount of the money goes to the artist.
