And Agbamevoza is the cross-border festival (most Agotime settlements are actually in Togo) not to be missed. Unfortunately, it won't happen again until 2024, but there will be plenty of Agotime kente on show at Volta Fair in Ho this week @Voltafair23 ...
Agotime is located in the Agotime-Ziope District in the Volta Region. It can arguably stand as a cradle of kente weaving in Ghana. For 300 years different patterns of kente have emerged from this community to boost the cultural identity of Ghanaians.
