On Saturday, May 24, Polo Beach Club will transform into a multisensory haven of heritage and elegance as it hosts Grains of Empire, a special cultural experience curated by LAFA, La Foundation for Arts.
The event will blend gastronomy, music, poetry, and African history into a compelling evening along Accra’s iconic coastline.
Designed as an intimate celebration of Africa’s culinary and cultural legacy, Grains of Empire invites guests to explore the continent’s deep-rooted stories through a carefully curated 3-course dinner, live orchestral performance, spoken word interludes, and textile storytelling—all set against the stunning backdrop of Polo Beach Club at sunset.
Beyond its artistic offering, the evening also champions a meaningful cause. Proceeds from the event will go toward supporting children with diverse needs through art therapy, reaffirming the organisers’ commitment to using culture as a vehicle for healing and social good.
“Grains of Empire is a reminder that our stories are powerful tools of healing, memory, and connection. We are proud to use this platform to not only honour African history but to give back to children whose voices need to be seen and heard through art,” a Polo Beach Club representative said.
The event is open to the public with limited seating, and guests are encouraged to make reservations early and be on time.
Attendees can expect an elegant yet soulful experience rooted in Africa’s rich culinary and creative traditions.
