The Arabic calligraphy workshop Marrakech is one of those experiences that feels calm, creative, and surprisingly personal. MoroccoPlan runs it, and from the moment you walk in, you feel like you’re stepping into a quiet corner of Marrakech where everything slows down a little. The session starts gently, almost like a warm welcome into the world of Arabic script, and you quickly see how a simple line can turn into something elegant and meaningful.
The master calligrapher shows you exactly how the letters and shapes work together, and it’s honestly pretty relaxing to follow along. One of the sweetest parts is when you get your own name written in beautiful calligraphy—it’s a small moment, but people really love it. You also get to make bookmarks with words like “happiness” or “wisdom,” which is a nice touch to take home.
Everything happens at Marrakech Museum – Place Ben Youssef, and the whole vibe is friendly and comfortable. You get a little mint tea Moroccan tea break, and since all calligraphy pens ink and tools provided, you don’t need to bring anything. The space works for everyone—wheelchair accessible surfaces, stroller access, and even service animals allowed. Groups stay small (max 10 travelers), which makes it easy to ask questions and move at your own pace.
Since the group is capped at ten travelers, it’s best to book early. MoroccoPlan takes care of the setup, so everything’s straightforward. Once you’re booked, just show up ready to enjoy a relaxed and inspiring introduction to Arabic calligraphy in Marrakech.
You’ll meet everyone at Marrakech Museum, Place Ben Youssef, which is the official marrakech museum meeting point. Your guide, Youssef El-Mansouri, will be there to greet you and explain how the session will run.

You’ll spend time trying out strokes, figuring out proportions, and getting comfortable with composition and styles of arabic calligraphy.
