Morocco

Organized by the Adayday Association of Cultural, Artistic and Social Development, the 2nd International Symposium on Sculpture of Tetouan was held in Tetouan City, Morocco from June 16th to 22nd. As one of the regional events of the 2019 World Wood Day, this symposium was supported by the World Wood Day Foundation (WWDF) and the International Wood Culture Society (IWCS).

Located in the northwest of Morocco, Tetouan is a historic city that was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. As the second event, the symposium not only continued its previous programs of woodcarving and stone carving, but also added a number of colorful on-site demonstration programs such as ironwork, clay, painting and mosaic collage art. In addition, the organizers also arranged some special activities such as the visit to traditional craft school, special education school, local traditional architectures and tree-planting. More than 30 guests from 14 countries were invited to the Symposium.
