Explore how Adinkra symbols communicate meaning through this ready-to-teach, artist-led lesson .
Designed for Secondary, Post-16, adult and community learning, the resource guides learners from Akan and Asante cultural context through visual analysis, personal reflection and contemporary art-making. The complete 120-minute sequence uses line, shape, pattern, symmetry, contrast and composition as a contemporary art-education lens while keeping documented cultural meaning distinct from personal response.

Clear facilitator prompts, learner actions, assessment criteria, SEND adaptations and a printable five-symbol reference sheet make preparation straightforward and support mixed-ability groups.
