To mark the Centenary of Malcolm de Chazal, the Mauritian famous prolific philosopher/poet/writer and painter, at the invitation of the Alliance Française, SPES organized jointly at Bel Village, from 15 to 18 December a colourful display of our diversified Works of Art and Crafts with Chazal Designs.
