Faiva Festival 2009 - Organised by Centre Soleil d'Afrique Hama Goro

By emphasizing the accomplishments of young Malian artists within Malian boarders and abroad, the centre wants to better their living conditions while allowing them to concentrate on the quality of their art.

With the financial support of the Prince Claus Foundation and the assistance and advice of the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam, Soleil d'Afrique opened its doors in the district ACI 2000, Hamdallaye in Bamako, Mali in 1999. Since 2000, Soleil d’Afrique is partner in RAIN network (RAIN Artists’ Initiatives Network).
The centre is unique in the cultural scene of Bamako and Mali. It not only offers a stimulating environment for artistic conception and creation. Intercultural exchange is also a priority. Interaction with individuals and institutions beyond Mali is continuously sought out. This opening on to the world can bring new sources of inspiration as well as new sources of revenue for artists of all generations.
Such are the objectives of the Centre.
