The Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) and Arthaland renew their partnership and continue their collaboration and commitment to promote Philippine arts and culture with a MOA signing recently at the Arthaland Century Pacific Tower.
Present at the signing were CCP Chairman Jaime C. Laya, CCP President Kaye C. Tinga, Arthaland Vice Chairman and President Jaime C. González, with Executive Vice President and Treasurer Cornelio S. Mapa Jr., Senior Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer Oliver L. Chan, and Marketing and Corporate Communications Unit Head Cyrene Pamela S. Go.
“It has been a great pleasure and honor for the CCP to partner with ARTHALAND, which is one of the most creative, innovative, and environmental-conscious organizations in the Philippines. We are doubly lucky to be working with an organization that has such objective and strong conviction to support the arts, with interest all over the Philippines, not just in Metro Manila but in Luzon, Visayas, and no doubt Mindanao in the future. We look forward to higher and greater things as we work together,” said Dr. Jaime C. Laya, CCP Chairman, during the MOA signing.
With the ongoing rehabilitation of the CCP Main Building, the Philippine premiere art institution has been looking for ways to bring arts and culture closer to every Filipino. One of the major focuses of its 2024 programming is expanding its outreach programs, with the aim of reaching wider audiences in the regions and other parts of the Philippines.
Laya intends to work with organizations such as Arthaland to bring the message of arts and culture, as well as sustainability and creativity to different regions.
Following the successful collaborations in the last two years, the new partnership produces another highly anticipated exhibit, titled “Kuwentong Kahoy,” featuring selected artworks from the CCP 21st Century Art Museum (21AM) Collection.
“Art is instrumental in propelling us towards Arthaland’s vision as guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This collaboration offers a powerful platform to engage our residents, students, faculty members, and the broader Biñan community in thought-provoking discussions about art, sustainability, and our shared future,” said Jaime C. González, Arthaland Vice Chairman and President.
The exhibition will run from October 30 to December 2, 2024, at the Sevina Park Pavilion in Biñan, Laguna.
