Addressing a group of artists, Bawumia pointed out the significant role that national galleries play in many countries, serving as a bridge between promoting art and boosting tourism. "As we see, many jurisdictions have national galleries of arts.
If Ghana doesn't have one, and we want to promote the art, and at the same time promote tourism, then there's a good nexus between these two.
And I will very much support the creation of a National Gallery of Art," Bawumia stated.
He highlighted that establishing such a gallery would provide a platform for Ghanaian artists to showcase their work while attracting tourists, thereby boosting the local economy.
