African Musical Instruments

Having just bought a djembe drum from eBay, I thought I’d give a shout out to the supplier along with the many Ghana based projects which are supported by this provider of fair trade musical instruments. The information below is taken directly from their flyer.

The musical instruments provided by African Musical Instruments are handmade in Ghana by African musicians and craftsmen and women. More information about available instruments can be found at https://www.africanmusicalinstruments.org/

African Musical Instruments is involved in a number of projects that support African communities. These include:

Meet Me There African Home Lodge
We started building this beautiful lodge in 2004 and have now donated it to the local community. It is run by the community and all profits go into projects to benefit the community of Dzita in the Volta Region of Ghana.

All the best, Hugh Newton.
