Critically acclaimed Up Dharma Down headlines a free concert at the Ortigas Park on Feb. 27.
Book, art, and music lovers are invited to attend the myriad of activities lined up by the Ortigas Foundation, Inc. (OFI) in celebration of its 13th anniversary.
On Feb. 20 and 21, "Booked at the Ortigas Park" showcases great titles from noted publishing houses and dealers. The 30-piece Quezon City Symphonic Band takes the stage and serenades with standard Filipino pieces and other pop hits for a post-Valentine high.
Kids of all ages are invited to go to the Ortigas Park on Feb. 21, 2
to 4 p.m. for Ilustrador ng Kabataan's live illustration showcase. Catch in action the country's premier organization of artists for children.
"I'm involved with someone else" is usually an unpleasant thing to hear, but this time it's actually a welcome statement. Be involved with someone else – volunteer for OFI's social development projects. Sign up and pledge hours of volunteer work at the Ortigas Foundation booth at the Ortigas Park. To close out the week-long festivities at the Ortigas Park, internationally acclaimed band Up dharma Down
headlines a free concert at the venue, supported by Paramita, Sleepwalk Circus, and Ang Bandang Shirley – excellent groundbreaking bands from indie label Terno Recordings.
Over at the Ortigas Foundation's Artists Nook of the Ortigas Building, award-winning painter Reynold "Rendy" dela Cruz displays
more than a dozen creations depicting children in his aptly titled selling exhibition Kaluskos Musmos from February 26 onwards. Finally, poetry lovers group Pinoy Poets celebrates its fifth year with featured lecturer Edgar Samar talking about the novel's views of poetry.
The Ortigas Foundation Week is made possible by Ortigas & Company, Limited Partnership with Terno Recordings, UST Publishing, Academic Services, Bound Bookstore, Adarna House, Bestsellers, Ilustrador ng Kabataan, and Pinoy Poets.
OFI is Ortigas and Company, Limited Partnership' s answer to the call for responsible corporate citizenship. Established in 1996, the Foundation's primary focus is to promote pride in being Filipino by supporting the study of Philippine history, culture and arts. Since then, the Foundation has embraced a host of other projects with a variety of concerns, participating in initiatives where its support is most needed.
