Mrs Hawah Bramah is calling on churches, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), corporate organisations and members of the general public to embrace tie-dye fashion by ordering customised tie-dye outfits for their activities, particularly their Friday wear.
As part of efforts to promote tie-dye and encourage practical skills development, Miss Ibrahim is also organising a three-day tie-dye workshop under the theme “Skills Pay the Bills.” The initiative highlights the importance of acquiring practical skills as a way of creating employment, earning an income and building a sustainable livelihood.
Miss Ibrahim is encouraging individuals and organisations to come on board, support the initiative and take advantage of the opportunity to promote Ghanaian creativity through locally made tie-dye designs.
Churches and Corporate Organisations Encouraged to Choose Tie-Dye for Friday Wear
Mrs Hawah Bramah is inviting churches, corporate institutions, NGOs, associations and other organised groups to consider tie-dye outfits for their Friday wear.
Friday wear provides an opportunity for organisations to express their identity, promote creativity and support local businesses. By choosing locally produced tie-dye attire, institutions can help create demand for handmade designs while giving visibility to the skills of Ghanaian textile artists.
Churches and other groups can also explore tie-dye outfits for special programmes, conferences, celebrations and group activities.
Mrs Hawah Bramah says the door is open to members of the public and organisations interested in ordering tie-dye attire. The invitation is intended to encourage greater appreciation of tie-dye as both a creative fashion choice and a potential source of income for skilled practitioners.
Three-Day Tie-Dye Workshop to Promote Practical Skills
Alongside the call for orders, Miss Ibrahim is promoting a three-day workshop focused on tie-dye skills.
The workshop is designed to draw attention to the value of practical training and the opportunities that can come from learning a craft. Tie-dye involves using different techniques to create patterns, colours and designs on fabric, allowing learners to explore their creativity while developing a skill that may support future business opportunities.
For people interested in fashion, textiles and entrepreneurship, practical training can provide a foundation for starting a small business, offering customised products or adding new services to an existing fashion enterprise.
Further details about the workshop dates, venue, registration process and participation fees should be confirmed by the organiser.
“Skills Pay the Bills”: A Message About Skills and Livelihoods
The theme for the workshop, “Skills Pay the Bills,” communicates a simple but important message: practical skills can help people create opportunities to earn a living.
In a competitive job market, learning a trade can provide an alternative pathway to employment and self-employment. However, acquiring a skill is only the beginning. Learners also need opportunities to practise, reach customers, market their products and turn their knowledge into a reliable source of income.
Tie-dye and textile design can offer opportunities for creative people who are willing to learn, practise and develop products that meet customer needs.
Miss Ibrahim’s initiative encourages people to recognise the value of skills development and consider how creative trades can contribute to personal growth and economic empowerment.
A Call for Public and Institutional Support
Mrs Hawah Bramah is calling on churches, NGOs, corporate organisations, fashion enthusiasts and the general public to support the initiative by participating in the workshop or placing orders for tie-dye attire.
Institutional orders could help create more opportunities for local producers, while workshop participation could encourage more people to explore textile design as a practical skill.
The initiative also presents an opportunity for organisations to support local creativity while promoting Ghanaian-made products.
As interest in locally designed fashion continues to create opportunities for creative entrepreneurs, initiatives that connect practical training with customers can help skilled people showcase their work and develop their businesses.
How to Get Involved
Churches, NGOs, corporate organisations and members of the public who wish to order tie-dye outfits or participate in the three-day workshop are encouraged to contact Mrs Hawah Bramah directly for further information.
Details such as the workshop dates, location, registration requirements, prices and contact number should be obtained from the organiser before publication.
