The Art of Atay

Atay Atelier is dedicated to promoting the art and culture of the Moroccan diaspora. We create connections and collaborations between young artists, cultural organizations, and a broad audience. Our philosophy is inspired by the atay principles: hospitality, storytelling, and community spirit.

Our offerings include:

  • Curation & Programming – We design unique cultural programs, auxiliary programming, and creative concepts for events and exhibitions.
  • Creative Collaboration & Advice – Young artists from the diaspora can rely on us for sparring, guidance, and mentorship. We connect them with organizations and fellow artists to build a stronger community together.
  • Podcast Production & Storytelling – We create and produce podcasts and stories that highlight the diversity and richness of the Moroccan diaspora.

Atay Atelier is a place without physical boundaries, yet with a clear purpose: connecting people through art and culture, always with a cup of atay and an open heart.
