Art Month

“Art is an important part of our culture. It mirrors our collective soul, our consciousness and our emotions. It makes us aware of social, environmental and spiritual issues,” Prof. Felipe de Leon, NCCA Chairman, said in his speech.
The annual celebration of National Arts Month started with the signing of Presidential Proclamation 683, in 1991, declaring February as National Arts Month. Over the years, NCCA, as well as private and government agencies, organize events and activities to highlight the artistic brilliance of the Filipinos. In recent years, the NCCA has been organizing a festival that showcases the artistic harvest of Filipino talents.

Some people are not celebrating art month because there are not usually aware of this celebration. Because some of them FEBRUARY KNOWS HEART MONTH;) but this month show our intellectual knowledge and skills about arts and our culture... It aims to further Philippine art and the Filipino’s regard for local arts and culture. Workshops, exhibitions, forums, performances and many more, will take place in various parts of the country.

It's true that is more Fun in the Philippines!!
