TAKING YOU FOR A STROLL AT VISAYAS ART FAIR | CEBU PH

Visayas Art Fair 2021: Connecting the islands through art

Last November 25, 2021 they launched Visayas biggest art fair at Montebello Villa Hotel in Cebu City. It was a 3-day event showcasing artworks from different artists and exhibitors in the Philippines, mostly in the Visayas region.

There was art auction which was called "ArTabang" which is a combination of the words "Art" + "Tabang" (Tabang is the cebuano word for help) and it aims to raise funds for art organizations and other charity projects. There were different programs and activities during the event such as painting competition, art forums, fashion show, nude painting, acoustic band, and more!

Tickets were really affordable and can easily be bought online, it costs 100php or ~2 USD for adults and 50php or ~1USD for students for one day access and if you buy the 3-day access they offer discounted rates. They were open for vaccinated and unvaccinated guests but unvaccinated guests had to take the COVID test. They also put a limit to the number of people to keep everyone safe and observe health protocols. They had a digital catalog where we can check the program for each day, the organizers of the event, the featured artists and speakers.

I was so ecstatic! Everything was so beautiful. It really makes me jealous how people can be so creative and talented. There were so many paintings that were my kind of style and I will show you my favorites in another blog soon!

I had a good time with my friends who were also interested in arts. and Oh! I was also with @pamilyaabilla ! We went around the art exhibit, had dinner together and some drinks after the event. I look forward to the next art fair!!!
