Crafted in the Medina: Morocco’s Living Art Forms

Morocco’s medina is teeming with living art forms. From pottery to textile weaving to intricate metalwork, artisans carry on traditions that have been passed down through generations. Whether it’s a ceramic plate adorned with intricate designs or a hand-woven rug dyed with vibrant colors, each piece tells a story of the country’s rich cultural heritage and the hands that crafted it.

Much of the artwork is created in small workshops, where apprentices work alongside master artisans. The process is labor-intensive and requires a keen eye for detail, but the result is worth the effort—a tangible piece of Morocco’s history and culture that carries forward into the present day.
