Support
Support our work in artist development, education, and performing arts research. We host residencies, presentations, and knowledge exchange for both local and international artists, reaching between 100 and 300 artists per year. Many of the construction and maintenance expenses are borne personally by our founder, and we would like to shift that as soon as possible.
Our current needs:
- Assistance in completion of infrastructure: roofing of classrooms and theatre, sprung wooden floor, mirrors and barres for dance, renovation of washrooms
- Equipment including gear for lighting, sound, projection, computers, carpentry/woodwork, sewing and craft, teaching supplies.
- Programming Support to help us continue to offer trainings, presentations, residencies, and workshops.
- Operational Support to help with costs of staffing and running the space.
Contact us at terraaltagh@gmail.com for a list of equipment, programs, and funds needed to make the space sustainable.
Detailed options and a donate button coming soon!

Project Wishlist
Making art is expensive, and we appreciate all the help we can get!
Our biggest needs (at present):
- Roof-
The roof is designed to shelter the two wings of the space as well as the entire black box area, providing weatherproof shelter from the elements, protecting the existing structure, and allowing us to finally install our professional dance floor and get going on some exciting work planned for the completed space.
-Library-
Our library space is semi-completed, but we are still in need of lockable bookshelves (to prevent people from "borrowing" the books permanently) as well as donations of excellent African literature, particularly Ghanaian drama and playscripts. We are however open to all genres once the writing is of good quality. This room is planned mostly as a reference library and médiathèque, so we are also accepting donations of storage drives and one/two computers in order to allow artists to reference our collection of audiovisual materials.
-Equipment-
We often need to update our in-house gear, from big things like projectors, computers, spotlights and musical instruments/sound gear, to smaller things like cables, memory cards, crayons and paintbrushes - all depending on what's on at the moment and on the artist's needs.
