    The Women's Cultural-Educational Association of Gargaliani and surroundings was founded in 1981 by a group of active women who shared a love for their place and tradition, with the aim of preserving the customs and traditions of the area and passing on tradition, values and ideals of our culture to the younger generations.

    The Association is addressed to all residents of the area, from the youngest to the oldest, as well as to people who live in other cities of Greece and abroad and have their roots and hearts here.

    The Gargaliani Women's Cultural-Educational Association aims to preserve our place's morals and customs and pass on our culture's traditions, values and ideals. The members aim to implement the idea of social solidarity but also contribute to the rescue and protection of the environment.

    The programmes that are active each year are the following:

    1. Learning Traditional dances
    From the first years of the Gargaliani Women's Cultural-Educational Association operation, Mr Yiannis Kalkavouras, professor of Physical Education, created sections of Greek Traditional dances preserved to this day.

    The purpose of the operation of these departments is to save and spread the traditional dances of our country. The classes are aimed at children from 4 to 16 years of age as well as adults without an age limit and desire to participate in as many shows and festivals as possible in Greece and abroad.

    The operating departments are:

    ● Kindergarten

    ● Elementary school

    ● Junior High school

    ● Senior High school

    ● Adults

    2. Ballet

    The Gargaliani Arts School already has almost thirty years of educational presence, from the basic principles of ballet, modern dance and rhythmic gymnastics to the professional level and the creation/participation in choreographies and performances.

    Its purpose is for the dancer to acquire discipline, knowledge, self-confidence, and love for themselves and dance, to develop their talent, to be part of a team and to learn to feel mentally and physically free and healthy. The Art School of Gargaliani has presented dozens of performances in the region, participated in musical and poetic events and attended a significant production of the Mariinsky Theatre. It has a nursery of pre-professional level and its own cloakroom to meet the performances' needs.

    The operating departments are:

    ● Preschool

    ● Kindergarten

    ● Elementary school

    ● Junior High school

    ● Senior High school

    3. Children's Choir

    The children's choir of the Gargaliani Women's Educational Association was founded in 2016. Its purpose is the study of choral singing, the cultivation of musical education in its members, and the development of the feeling of partnership and cooperation. The goals are achieved by the children's participation in various events of the Association.

    The operating departments are:

    ● Elementary school

    ● Junior High school
