Urban area in Ashanti Region, Ghana
Ntonso is a town in the Kwabre East District of the Ashanti Region noted for its Adinkra crafts.[1] It is located about 15 km north of Kumasi in the Ashanti region.[2] It is also the home of Adventist Girls High School .[3]
Home of Adinkra [ edit ]
Ntonso is the place where the adinkra cloth is made in Ghana. The traditional adinkra is made from the scratch locally. It is the producer of Ghana's adinkra, a fabric known for its proverbial wisdom and symbols. The cloth was initially worn for funerals only in the Ashanti region of Ghana . It comes in a variety of colors such as brown, red and black. Currently, it is produced in all colors and used everywhere in Ghana.[4]
Hospitality [ edit ]
Ntonso also has visitor centers and official tour guides.[5] Visitors could be engaged in a variety of stages of adinkra production like dye preparation, adinkra stamping, cloth dyeing and embroidery of stamped cloth.[4] [2]
