To celebrate its annual Nour Festival of Arts, Leighton House is hosting the Nour Souk: a display and sale of contemporary design, fashion, foods and artisanal wares from the Middle East and North Africa. Set within the beautiful Oriental interior of Leighton House, this special afternoon takes its inspiration from an eastern souk (or market), where jewellery, clothing, fragrance, unique art objects, and deli products will feature in a family-friendly open day. Selected designers and makers include Hassan Hajjaj (Larache), Dia Batal, Mehran Gharleghi, Zaytoun, Fez, and many more.
Music, children's activities and snacks will all be available on the day.
