The Embassy of Denmark of Ghana hosted a Danish Social Evening celebrating peace and creativity on April 24, marking the International Day of Multilateralism and Diplomacy for Peace.
The Embassy of Denamrk co-hosted with HowFar Gallery and LogonART, the event featured Ghanaian artists Vifah Emmanuel and Ahmed Partey, plus Pakistani artist Tahir Zaman. It united diplomats, development partners, expats and art practitioners for an evening of cross‑cultural connection, dialogue and artistic appreciation.
Held in a warm, relaxed setting, the event showcased vivid artworks and interactive sessions centred on peace, unity and cross-border solidarity. It highlighted art as a soft power bridge between nations, fostering mutual understanding beyond formal diplomacy and celebrating global cultural diversity.
Fang W. Linulf, spouse of the Danish Ambassador and founder of LogonART, initiated the event with HowFar gallery. She noted the goal is to strengthen ties with local cultural institutions and elevate Ghanaian art on the international stage, creating valuable global networking opportunities for local creators.
This gathering is Fang’s first large-scale cultural event in Africa. “It’s my first time organising such an event in Africa, and Pakistan was my previous place of residence. I have witnessed rich cultural differences firsthand. By bringing together Pakistani artist Tahir Zaman and Ghanaian artist Vifah Emmanuel, we present not only a vibrant art exhibition, but also a striking cultural contrast and sincere international dialogue,” she said.
