This Centre Kalawachi event is retained because the official heritage page confirms a free on-site exhibition in Kourou during the 19-20 September 2026 weekend, with content on the life of Amerindian peoples of Guyane and the architectures of Wayampi, Teko, Kalina, Palikur, Wayana and Arawak nations. The source also notes traditional activities and optional paid food. The listing is culturally strong because it foregrounds architecture, craft, manioc foodways and Indigenous transmission in a dedicated local center, giving visitors a concrete encounter with living knowledge rather than a generic display. It also helps balance the database beyond markets and penal heritage.
