Learn Embroidery in Arabic Calligraphy
Personalize a basket with Arabic calligraphy, enjoy mint tea, and leave with a handmade keepsake in just two hours!
In this hands-on creative workshop, you'll personalize a traditional palm-leaf basket by stitching a word of your choice, such as "Hello," "Love," or even your own name, beautifully rendered in Arabic script. Guided by skilled local artisans, you'll learn every step of the process, from tracing elegant calligraphic letters to bringing them to life with needle and thread.
The workshop is held in a charming boutique atelier tucked just beneath the iconic rooftop of La Terrasse des Épices. Surrounded by a warm and welcoming atmosphere, you'll sip traditional Moroccan mint tea as you delve into the story of personalized embroidery, a craft introduced to Marrakech in 2010 and lovingly preserved ever since.
By the end of the session, you'll leave with a truly special keepsake: a hand-embroidered basket, made by you, a beautiful reminder of your time in Marrakech. As a special gift, a tote bag will also be offered at the end of the workshop!
