Exhibition "Au cœur des palmiers" (at the heart of palm trees)
Musée des Cultures Guyanaises
French Guiana
From February, 2sd to December, 31th 2013
Many species of palm trees are used by the population living in French Guiana : to make objects (baskets, headdresses, toys for instance), to build houses (roofs, decorations...) but also to prepare meals (juice, ice cream, paste, oils...).
This exhibition is an invitation to discover these species and the way they are used.
