Volunteering in Ghana for arts and music projects is the best way to test your cross cultural knowledge. SMWEF Arts and Music volunteer program in Ghana enables volunteers to be immersed in new culture to share their talents with disadvantaged youth and unprivileged children. Arts and Music has the ability to heal, change, prompt people to stand up for causes, and it has the undeniable ability to connect and bring people together.
Arts and Music help bring comfort in the face of adversity as well as providing a potentially valuable skill to those who are able.
This Arts & Music program is year-round with flexible start dates and duration, and welcomes anyone interested in music and/or has background in music, arts and culture and can help teach, train, empower and unearth the hidden talents and gifts of these deserving persons or youth in underserved communities of Ghana.

Also, volunteers have the weekend to explore the 16 regions of Ghana. Each region has its unique culture and tourists' sites. Volunteers are advice to read more about Ghana's tourist sites to help them a fair idea of where their interest will be.
We help volunteers to choose tourist sites and give advice on safety check, accommodation and recommend tour guide if the need be. There is forts and castles, monkey sanctuary, mole safari ride, waterfalls, open street market, museum etc. that volunteers can visit as well as local festivals like Bakatue, Akomase, Homowo, Aboakyere, Chalewote festival etc.
We expect all volunteers to respect our local culture, directions, be flexible and humble themselves during their stay at our place.
