ABSTRACT
This study examined the impact of the Chale Wote Street Art festival in James Town in the Accra Metropolis of Ghana. A descriptive case study design was employed for the study and purposive sampling technique was employed to select the respondents consisting of 14 people: 2 festival Organizers, 4 Members of the Host Community, 2 Participating Artists, 3 festival Attendees, 2 Sponsors and 1 official from the Centre for National Culture were drawn for the study. The instruments used in collecting data were semi- structured interview and participant observation and data obtained was analysed thematically. The study revealed that Chale Wote festival had a positive impact on the host community of James Town and the other stakeholders. It is however recommended that indecent public exposure should be checked while encouraging participants to exhibit more realistic art forms to the public. Also volunteerism and efficient planning as a conduit to sustain the festival should be upheld.
