Thrills at 2023 Tapioca Festival

The Tapioca Festival, a captivating three-day event that combines elements of technology, tourism, trade and arts in a remarkable celebration of Afrocentric culture came off in Ada last week.
The event, which was the fourth edition, was held under the theme ‘A New Dawn.’
This year’s event was dominated by ‘street arts’ featuring domestic art works from renowned Ghanaian artistes.
Speaking to The Spectator, Co-founder and Executive Di¬rector of Tapioca Foundation, organisers of the festival, Mr Seth Priceless Ala-Amegavie, said this year’s event was characterised by innovative strategies to embrace the future.
“We’re excited to be leading an experience, un¬locking potentials, breaking the youth out of their com¬fort zones and pace-setting industrialisation through events in the Ada region,” he said.
He added that they took a bold step during the pan¬demic and it has ushered them into a realm of a new dawn, the age of artificial intelligence for community development.
“We are dedicated to unlocking the potential of Africa in the fields of tourism, arts and culture,” he said.
According to him, their mission is to create an equitable world where African minds are fully empowered to contribute to changing their narrative.
“We aim to achieve this by providing an educational space and platform accessi¬ble to all free-thinking indi-viduals or groups that wish to contribute to changing the narrative and perspective of Africa,” he stressed.
