Creatives Project Ghana Announces Selected Writers for 'Where I’m From: A Christmas in Ghana'

Creatives Project Ghana is pleased to announce the selected writers and creatives whose works will be featured in our special Christmas series, 'Where I’m From: A Christmas in Ghana,' publishing on our website from 25th December.

• This call invited Ghanaian writers, poets, artists, and creatives to reflect on what Christmas means across different homes, cities, villages, memories, and generations. The response was overwhelming, rich, and deeply moving. The selected works explore Ghanaian Christmas through food, family traditions, nostalgia, faith, humour, change, and quiet reflection—capturing both what remains and what is slowly shifting.

All selected works will be published on creativesprojectgh.com throughout the Christmas week.
