Day of Valor Art Exhibit and Poetry Reading

Wazzup Pilipinas!

A Visual Poetry Collaboration!

Day of Valor is a collaboration that explores the role of art in addressing and reconciling the gap between action and intention within the Self and within society. Based on the literary work of Pauline Lacanilao, visual artists Sean Andrew Cura, Sandra Dans, and Katrina Teh, bravely venture into the divided terrain of decision-making, whence they emerge, if without answers, with something much more beautiful.

You take my breath away, Simply Jessie, Let’s make a memory… these are the few signature songs of the 80’s pop heartthrob, Rex Smith. He is perhaps best known as an early '80s pin-up idol. He is a multi-talented performer whose natural singing ability has led him to a successful career as a singer and actor.

It is a chance of a lifetime to see a performer of Rex’s caliber on June 23, 2013 at Widus Resort & Casino Manuel A. Roxas Highway, 2023 Clark, Pampanga, Philippines.

Moveable Feast's farm-to-table experiences and initiatives support the transition to a sustainable food future by educating people about the benefits of sustainable agriculture (how food is grown and raised) and by connecting farmers, foodmakers, businesses, and others along the value chain in an effort to increase everyone's stake in our local food system.

By helping consumers make better food choices, we can help minimize the environmental damage caused by shipping foods thousands of miles, supporting organic and sustainable farming practices, and by encouraging consumers to 'reduce their foodprint'.

What is summer? People say summer is when you can go swimming to different beaches, show your sexy body by wearing summer clothes and get tanned. Other says it is when you can sleep anytime of the day, eat everything you want, watch movies and go anywhere. Yes, we all have our own definition of summer. For me, summer is when our family should visit my relatives at our province in Visayas, go swimming in near beach and sleep late just because of endless stories of my cousins and grandparents about their lives. Before, that’s what summer for me is.

This summer, we didn’t go to our province. I don’t know why, but all of us were busy. My parents go to work, also my brothers, since they’re done with their studies. And I, for the preparation for the UPCAT, went to an UPCAT Review. We’re all busy so we decided to go somewhere where we can have fun while not consuming a lot of our time at the same time.
