Join us for a warm and intimate evening celebrating culture, art, connection, and tradition.
- Moroccan culinary food by Ma3lish (Kaoutar Gadir)

- Hosted in the exhibition space with Dunya Zita’s project Mejmou3en (@FOTOOK, Utrecht)
During my stay in Morocco, spending time with my aunts and grandmother deepened my appreciation for women-centered gatherings. Spaces where simply being together, accompanied by good food, creates connection on a deeper level and where traditions and stories are shared across generations. In that spirit, I’m collaborating with Ma3lish (Kaoutar Gadir) and Hand of Fatima (Fatima Oulad Thami) to host a warm and intimate evening filled with nourishing food, art, ritual, and conversation.
