In August 2011 we celebrated half a century of Marreta! and we invite everybody to join this event and help us realize the next part of the Éta-nós project. In August Mestre Marreta organized a meeting in his school in Montes Claros, at the farm Fazenda Mandacarú and in the village of Pau d'Óleo. In collaboration with Unimontes University in Montes Claros special guests will introduce us to several cultural, traditional and sports themes. In the same period the visitors can join the beautiful Festas de Agosto, the traditional folcloric event of Montes Claros.
Participation fee is R$ 150 (excluding travel costs, including meals, lodging and activities).
