About:
Join us for an unforgettable evening of [re]discovering the haunting beauty of Philippine mythology amidst the stunning artworks of the Unwrapping Lumpia exhibition! Immerse yourself in the richness of Philippine ancestral stories through live performances, captivating storytelling sessions, and interactive activities, which include tarot readings using decolonized cards. Channel your inner mythical creature and come dressed as a manananggal, dwende, tiyanak, Lady of Balete Drive, or some mysterious Filipino-American artist.
This event is organized by Likhaya in partnership with Conde Art Project, Epiphany Center for the Arts, and CIRCA Pintig, embodying the spirit of "Bayanihan," Filipino communal unity and cooperation.
This event is exclusively for adults aged 21 and over.
Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity to experience the magic of Philippine mythology amidst a showcase of Filipino American art.
