Les Guirettes are dancers, acrobats singers, percussionists and actors. They possess a rich repertoire of African Dance Choreography which is true and spontaneous, because of the early age at which they have begun their art. Art has become their mother and father and they live it with love and without condition or holding back. The genius of these young artists has been recognized by UNESCO in naming this school EDEC (Dance and Cultural Exchange School), as one of its Associated schools. |
Les Guirettes have conquered stages in Cote D'Ivoire, other African countries and in Europe and are looking forward to their American debut in 1999-2000. They need the help of sponsors, benevolent groups and private donations to continue to realize their dreams. |
Les Guirettes, are composed of young artists from diverse backgrounds including orphans and disadvantaged children of Cote D'Ivoire and victims of civil wars from neighboring African countries. Like Les Guivoires, this younger company lives from the benefits of performance contracts. Ms Guiraud has insisted that all the members of Les Guirettes are enrolled in school. For this reason Ms.Guiraud has gone even further by adding a kindergarten and elementary school to her dance school. Today the elementary school has nearly 150 students. These children also are provided room and board at the school |
Our greatest hope Is that the grand international organizations come to the aid of the Foundation Guiraud MR, parent organization of Les Guirettes. Its founder, Rose Marie Guiraud, has always realized the need for international cooperation and is calling out for your aid in the maintenance of this organization which is of tremendous social importance to the resolution of the African problem Saving the children. All contracts offered are considered as a gift. Each voyage participates in the education of these dynamic youth. |
