Fondo de la Mariposa

Åge Aleksandersen, a living legend in Norwegian rock’n roll, has set up a fund for Nicaraguan musicians, “Fondo de la Mariposa”, which gives monetary help to young musicians and bands in Nicaragua to help develop their musical careers. This year the band “CulturaFolk” was awarded the grant and our first-year student Marja Siu is the vocalist of this band![fusionbuildercontainer hundredpercent="yes" overflow="visible"][fusionbuilderrow][fusionbuildercolumn type="11" backgroundposition="left top" backgroundcolor="" bordersize="" bordercolor="" borderstyle="solid" spacing="yes" backgroundimage="" backgroundrepeat="no-repeat" padding="" margintop="0px" marginbottom="0px" class="" id="" animationtype="" animationspeed="0.3" animationdirection="left" hideonmobile="no" centercontent="no" minheight="none"]She was invited to the official ceremony on September 15th and 16th at Åge Alexandsersen’s concerts in Oslo.
