We are so happy to welcome the lovely Charlotte Mensah, who came by our institution with her daughter along with the amazing Malin Fezehai!

Charlotte is an award-winning British Ghanaian hairstylist, the owner of the Hairlounge in London, and the author of the well-known book: Good Hair. She has been a trailblazer for preserving the importance of black hair and hair care. She recently has been documented for CNN African Voices Changemakers, where she showcases her foundation: Love Naa Densua Foundation which creates sustainable entrepreneurship on the continent. It was great having them come to the space during the final days of the exhibitions of Bolatito Aderemi-Ibitola and Foster Sakyiamah. Charlotte had the chance to converse with many of our artists, such as Mimi Adu-Serwaah, as they discussed Mimi’s uses of hair within her practice at the residency.

We can’t wait to welcome you again!
