Cebu is home to many artists whose works have been acclaimed locally and even internationally. It does not come as a surprise that more aspiring artists emerge in the local scene – from filmmaking, fashion design, painting, and many others.
Local artists showcase works in Cebu to celebrate the gift of artistic talents
Armed with the awareness of Cebu’s treasure trove of local artists, Robinsons Galleria Cebu has organized its first-ever “Assemblage: Art Festival” where artists both amateur and veterans can display their talents for the Cebuano community to appreciate.
Assemblage: Art Festival consists of several activities that have been lined up for the whole month of February, which is also the celebration of the National Arts Month.
“Robinsons Galleria Cebu has been very supportive of local artists and local talents. We had several events in the mall and have been a partner of numerous organizations, schools, community, civic groups that allow them to showcase their talents in the visual arts, music, dance, fashion and so much more,” said May Adolfo, Senior Regional Operations Manager for Cebu and Eastern Visayas of Robinsons Land Corp. “We always support and have the heart for artists,” she added.
Assemblage was launched last February 17 with the opening of an Art Gallery at the Level 1 of Robinsons Galleria Cebu. It is open to the public until February 29. On February 24, several exciting activities have been scheduled and dubbed as Art + Fashion Revolution.
