Kumasi Central Prison Hosts Maiden Inmates’ Runway Fashion Show

Kumasi Central Prison marked a historic milestone on Monday, December 29, 2025, with the successful staging of its maiden Inmates’ Runway Fashion Show, highlighting creativity, rehabilitation, and skills development within the correctional facility.
The event showcased garments designed and sewn by inmates, reflecting the impact of ongoing vocational training and rehabilitation programmes at the prison. Participants confidently took to the runway, modeling outfits that demonstrated technical skill, originality, and attention to detail.
According to prison authorities, the fashion show forms part of broader efforts to equip inmates with employable skills to support reintegration into society after incarceration. The initiative emphasizes rehabilitation through practical training rather than punishment alone.
The event attracted prison officials, invited guests, and stakeholders who commended the inmates for their discipline, creativity, and commitment. Organisers described the show as a step toward changing perceptions about correctional facilities and reinforcing the importance of vocational education within Ghana’s prison system.
