These posters are painted on recycled flour sacks by local artists, highlighting the creativity and resourcefulness of the community. Each poster is unique, with artists often adding or altering scenes to make them more visually striking. This tradition began in the 1980s with the advent of video and mobile cinemas in Ghana, which required large, eye-catching advertisements to draw in audiences.
