ACA's Battle of the Bands is back for a third edition!

Maybe you've been writing songs in your room for years. Maybe you've got a group that jams together but has never played in front of anyone. Maybe you've always wanted to get up on a stage and share what you've made, but never knew how, or never had the chance.

This is that chance.

Battle of the Bands gives you a real stage, a real audience, and a real shot at a national tour, sponsored by the American Language Centers across Morocco. You don't need to be established. You don't need a big following. You just need something to say and the courage to say it out loud.

We especially welcome:
✨ Female artists
🎤 Bands of up to 4 members
🎶 Acts blending Moroccan and American influences
🗣️ Performances that include English
🎓 University students and early-career talents

If this is you, we want to hear you. Apply now! Deadline October 18th,2026 . Link in the bio.

Winners of the National Visual Arts Competition 2026

The results are in! We're so happy to share the winners of this year's National Visual Arts Competition, organized by the American Cultural Association.

Currents are everywhere in the world around us: people on the move, information flowing faster than ever, social and cultural shifts reshaping communities, environmental change redefining landscapes. And looking back at art pieces submitted to previous competitions organized by the ACA, currents and change kept showing up in the work even when they weren't the focus so it felt like something that felt both inevitable and necessary to choose this year as a theme. It was also fascinating to see how this year's participants, especially our winners. Each found their own way into the theme through different interpretations and mediums.

Congratulations to:
Younes Sefiaoui
Yasmine Messaouidi
Selma Sedkane
SalahEddine Maloudi
Hamza Marmouche
Chaimae Lehamaoui
Ahnach Mohamed

And a big thank you to everyone who participated! It means a lot that you shared your work with us.

📅 The winning pieces will be on display this May at the American Art Center in Casablanca. Follow us to get more information on the exhibition!
