Try Arabic calligraphy, Rif weaving, watercolor painting and Moroccan cooking at El Patio Cultural in the medina of Tetouan.
El Patio Tetouan medina

Practice calligraphy, weaving, painting or cooking with local makers and artists in the historic medina of Tetouan. Each session introduces techniques, materials and cultural stories through direct, hands-on experience.
Choose by the material you want to work with and the time you have in Tetouan. Each workshop has its own page with the published duration, an introduction to the craft and questions to ask before booking.
Calligraphy is a choice for people interested in lettering and precise gestures. Watercolor lets you observe the architecture and light of the medina through painting. Both are listed for all levels. Traditional weaving is beginner friendly and gives you a longer session with threads and a hand loom.
The cooking workshop explores the food traditions represented at El Patio. Ask for the session menu, especially if you want to learn a particular dish. If you are choosing an activity for a group, share your interests and experience levels so the team can explain the available format.
Workshop dates follow the cultural programme. The cards describe the offerings rather than a daily timetable. Contact the team with your preferred date and number of participants to confirm which sessions can be arranged.
