Know before you go

This experience is curated by an activist and artist dedicated to the authentic representation of Amazigh culture, challenging misconceptions and stereotypes. Too often, people profit from the culture without giving back to local musicians and communities, while harmful terms like "Berber" continue to misrepresent Amazigh identity. This experience was thoughtfully designed to honor the true essence of Amazigh heritage, provide factual insights, and create a meaningful space where visitors can connect with the culture in a respectful and immersive way.
