Fodor's Expert Review Mashi Mushki

Shopping at this store in the medina gives you the chance to pick up craft items with a conscience and support locals, as a percentage of the profits goes to Project 91, a charity that helps young Souiris (natives of Essaouira) improve their lives through job training and other activities. Some items, including paintings, prints, handwoven textiles, bags, gifts, and accessories, are made in the neighborhood or by co-ops, which benefits locals. Project 91 also runs Dar 91 ( dar91.com), three serviced apartments for visitors.
