« MAQUIZ’ART » is an association which originates in a man’s passion for jazz and afrolatino music. He wishes to organize cultural and artistic events in Eymet.

In 2007, Maquiz'art organized its first “Afrolatines” festival with a good quality programme planning (Omar Sosa, Minimo Garay, Ricardo Tété, …). During the festival, dance and percussion stages were suggested, as an ethnic market which offered World craft.
< Even if, it was open to all arts, « MAQUIZ’ART » chose to concentrate on music, with unifying thread Jazz from its African origins, to the half-caste music.
The association offers as well a winter programme “Le Off” where Jazz and Afrolatino musicians are welcomed. .
