About This Museum

Tucked away on a side street just off Rue Yougoslavie, Musée Macma is a quiet revelation. It feels less like a formal institution and more like stepping into the vibrant, beating heart of modern Moroccan creativity. I was completely captivated by the way it weaves together contemporary works with their historical influences, telling a continuous story of artistic expression. It’s an intimate space that invites you to linger and really absorb the art, far from the city's bustling souks.

Collection Highlights

The ground floor is dominated by stunning, large-scale paintings from the Casablanca School of the 1960s, their bold colors and social commentary setting the stage. Upstairs, you'll find a fascinating collection of vintage Moroccan travel posters that completely redefined my idea of 'advertising' as art. The real magic is in how these historic pieces are in direct conversation with provocative contemporary installations scattered throughout.

Visitor Information

It's surprisingly easy to miss the entrance on Passage Ghandouri, so keep your eyes peeled. Once you find it, you'll discover a cool, peaceful oasis that's perfect for a midday escape from the Marrakech heat.

Architecture & Building

The museum is housed in a beautifully restored traditional Marrakech riad, so you get those classic features like a central courtyard and rooms flowing off it. They've kept the original tiled zellij floors and carved wooden ceilings, which creates this incredible dialogue between the historic building and the modern art inside.
