Terra Alta

Established in 2017 by artist and performer Elisabeth Efua Sutherland, Terra Alta is an artist-led performing arts space in Accra characterised by an open-air stage and several large containers that serve as places for research, classes, and rehearsals, offering a year-round programme of performances and events.

About Terra Alta

Terra Alta started as an artist’s response to the lack of accessible arts infrastructure in Accra, particularly space for rehearsal, research and development. Five years of community building, crowdfunding and crowd sourced knowledge later, we’re proud to have the complex of six shipping containers, gardens and stages that comprise our rehearsal room, artist residency spaces, (unfinished) gallery and library.
