About this experience
You’ll settle into a beautiful traditional riad and discover the rhythm, balance, and artistry of Moroccan Arabic calligraphy. I’ll introduce you to the essential strokes and guide you as you practise lettering with ink, pens, and richly colored materials. Surrounded by carved details, zellige tiles, lantern light, and a peaceful courtyard atmosphere, you’ll create your own decorative piece while learning about the cultural meaning behind the script. No previous experience is needed—just curiosity, patience, and a willingness to enjoy a creative Moroccan tradition at your own pace.
