As part of the second edition of the “Musical Generations & Cultures Festival“, the first day of workshops on drawing, visual arts, and clay modelingkicked off on Thursday, May 21, 2026, in the historic city of Fez, with the outstanding participation of students from the Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdelrahman Al-Iraqi Middle School.
This artistic and educational initiative is part of the festival’s cultural and educational program, which aims to discover emerging talent, encourage artistic creativity among children and young people, and create spaces for free expression and the development of aesthetic sensibilities among the younger generations.
An open space for expression and creativity
The workshops drew a strong response from participants, who had the opportunity to engage in a variety of artistic activities combining drawing and clay modeling in an atmosphere of creativity, learning, and fun.
This event provided an opportunity to discover and nurture many promising talents, and to showcase the artistic abilities of students from various educational institutions through works that demonstrated exceptional creativity and a promising artistic vision.
Art is a universal language that gives children a space to express their thoughts and feelings, and helps shape their personalities and build their self-confidence.
