MARKETPLACE

A marketplace featuring the arts and culture of Morocco comes to the Chicago Cultural Center this week, the first in a planned monthly series showcasing Chicago’s 20 sister cities. (Casablanca became a sister city in 1982.)

Proceeds from jewelry, pottery, saddlebags, textiles, rugs and religious items offered at the marketplace will benefit the Ibn Rochd’s Children’s Hospital in Casablanca.
