Sunrise just before the 13th Nature Encounter Arts Month Celebration opens in Sagay, Negros Occidental. Themed “Duta, Tubig, Hangin,” the festival was initiated in 2013 by the celebrated artist Nunelucio Alvarado. Festivities commence early morning at the coastal spot of Kape Albarako, with body painting, dancing, performance art, and kites flying against a backdrop of the open sea. Led by Pintor Kulapol and other local artist groups, films will be shown with dances and visual art exhibits. A number of art and history appreciation sessions will be held with local teachers, which the Constantino Foundation is contributing to.
