PANAPTON SA LUMAD: MGA ARTE NG KAILHANAN
SAVE THE DATE – October 4. A new exhibit is up in your National Museum – Eastern Northern Mindanao!
We are excited to finally open to the public this new exhibition entitled, “Panapton sa Lumad: Mga Arte ug Kailhanan (Lumad Textiles: Artistry and Identity)”, featuring the shared textiles and ornaments between and among the cultural communities in Mindanao, specifically that of the Lumad groups. Included in the exhibition are abaca fibers and natural dyes, backstrap/tension looms, tie-dyed woven abaca fibers, and commercially available cotton cloth intricately decorated with embroidery, colorful glass beads, shells, and applique.
This exhibition is the 5th regional gallery of the Hibla ng Lahing Filipino Program, in partnership with the Office of the Senator Loren Legarda and the GAMABA Executive Council of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts.
Happy Museums and Galleries Month!
