The folk group “Nice la Belle” inaugurated its new headquarters, “La Maison Francine Gag,” last March at 20 Avenue Frédéric Mistral in Nice Nord (very close to Villa Arson).
This Saturday, April 11, it decided to showcase it to the people of Nice during a festive event, in the presence of the 3 Nice folk groups and the largest cultural associations of Nice.
Socca, Niçoise cuisine, costume exhibition, conferences, workshops and games for children, songs, dances, and to conclude, Baleti for everyone!
A first day sure to be followed by many others, and that’s exactly what we hope for this dynamic association that proudly upholds the colors of Nice’s heritage.
