Join the Creative Movement at the Rabat Street Art Festival
On March 11, 2026, the organizers of the "Jidar - Rabat Street Art Festival" announced the opening of applications for participation in their "Shared Wall" project, as part of the festival’s eleventh edition, scheduled to take place from April 16 to April 27, 2026. This initiative serves as a creative laboratory and a nurturing ground for emerging talent, aiming to provide a space dedicated to collaboration and experimentation for up-and-coming artists, art students, and urban culture enthusiasts.
The announcement highlights that twelve selected candidates will be given the opportunity to design a large-scale artwork within a professional framework focused on participation and technical exploration throughout the workshop period from April 20 to April 26, 2026. Notably, this year's festival will feature renowned artist "Bikr" as a mentor for the participants. His artistic journey, which blends classical skills acquired in Fes with the academic art training from the Casablanca School of Fine Arts, serves as an inspiring model for the new generation, merging family heritage with the vibrant energy of street art.
Participation in this adventure offers emerging talents the chance to receive professional artistic guidance and collaborate with young artists from all over the country, opening doors for outstanding individuals to potentially join the festival's official program in the future. The organizers have set the deadline for submitting applications online to midnight on April 5, 2026. Interested candidates must include a registration form and a portfolio of their works, and are required to commit to being present in Rabat for the duration of the workshop.
