- Learn the fundamentals of writing baybayin characters, including consonants, vowels, and markings (mb17+)
- Practice writing syllables and words.
- Take home a reusable dry rease practice mat
This workshop is for you if:
- You're interested in learning about pre-colonial Philippine history and culture.
- You want to connect with your Filipino roots (if you have any!) in a meaningful way.
- You're looking for a fun and engaging way to learn a new writing system.
- No prior experience is necessary. This workshop is designed for beginners and is open to all!
