Academia
Arabesca offers courses and seminars on specific aspects
of Moroccan culture. We also host special events and
excursions into the desert, the mountains, or the seaside.
|
| |
 |
This
group is having a lecture by a Moroccan University professor
on the position of women in Moroccan society.
|
| |
 |
Here
a group is having a hands-on learning experience about
Moroccan textiles. All Arabesca courses integrate theory
and practice so that participants benefit from being
immersed in Moroccan culture.

Birthday
celebrations are just one of the special events that
Academia Arabesca hosts. At this birthday party, there
were local musicians who performed and danced with
the guests.
The
group stayed in Marrakech long enough to also participate
in local events - some visited an orchestra's rehearsal,
and one member gave a concert at a local art gallery.

 |
Our
Moroccan neighbours are often invited to special events
at Riad Arabesca.

Academia
Arabesca offers various excursions to the mountains
and the desert in conjunction with a licensed Moroccan
tour operator.
|
| |
 |
No
course on Moroccan culture would be complete without
seeing the villages of the High Atlas and meeting the
people who live there.
|
|
|
 |
...Just
as anyone interested in traditional architecture should
see the incredible multi-storey kasbahs made entirely
of clay, wood and straw.

|
 |
Meet
Moroccans from all backgrounds. This man is one of a
group of musicians from the South of the country who
taught a class to Academia Arabesca members.
|
|
|
 |
And
what better way to learn about the life of nomads than
spending several nights living as a nomad in bivouac
tents in the desert?
|
| |
 |
Of
course, learning how to ride a dromedary can be an education
in itself.
