African arts and crafts include things like sculpture, paintings, pottery, ceremonial and religious headgear, ritual articles, musical instruments, weapons and dress. The most widespread themes in African art and sculpture are a couple, a woman and kid plus a male using a weapon or animal&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
