In line with the annual celebration of National Arts Month every February, the Sentro Rizal of the Philippine Consulate General in Honolulu is proud to present Ani ng Sining: Diwa at Damdamin. The theme emphasizes the idea that the nation’s artistic expression is deeply rooted in the collective passion and spirit of its people.
Join us and experience the rich tapestry of Philippine culture and arts through the the online exhibit "Strong and Luscious," spearheaded by National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), in partnership with the Museo ng Kaalamang Katutubo (MusKKat). The exhibit features the utility and versatility of the abaca, a strong fiber obtained from Musa textilis, a non-edible banana native to the Philippines.
May this celebration not only serve as an opportunity to honor the creative talents of the Filipino people, but also recognize how art unites us and reconnects us to our roots. Together, let us honor our heritage, and ensure that our legacy continues to inspire generations to come.
