MANILA, PHILIPPINES— The Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) and ARTHALAND have renewed their partnership. They will continue their collaboration and commitment to promoting Philippine arts and culture, with an MOA signing recently at the Arthaland Century Pacific Tower.

Present at the signing were CCP Chairman Jaime Laya, CCP President Kaye Tinga, ARTHALAND Vice Chairman and President Jaime González, with Executive Vice President and Treasurer Cornelio Mapa Jr., Senior Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer Oliver Chan, and Marketing and Corporate Communications Unit Head Cyrene Pamela Go

“It has been a great pleasure and honor for the CCP to partner with ARTHALAND, which is one of the most creative, innovative, and environmental-conscious organizations in the Philippines. We are doubly lucky to be working with an organization that has such objective and strong conviction to support the arts, with interest all over the Philippines, not just in Metro Manila but in Luzon, Visayas, and no doubt Mindanao in the future. We look forward to higher and greater things as we work together,” said Dr. Jaime Laya.

With the ongoing rehabilitation of the CCP Main Building, the Philippine premiere art institution has been looking for ways to bring arts and culture closer to every Filipino. One of the major focuses of its 2024 programming is expanding its outreach programs to reach wider audiences in the regions and other parts of the Philippines. 

Dr. Laya intends to work with organizations such as ARTHALAND to bring the message of arts and culture, as well as sustainability and creativity to different regions.  

Following the successful collaborations in the last two years, the new partnership produces another highly anticipated exhibit, Kuwentong Kahoy, featuring selected artworks from the CCP 21st Century Art Museum (21AM) Collection.

“Art is instrumental in propelling us towards ARTHALAND’s vision as guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This collaboration offers a powerful platform to engage our residents, students, faculty members, and the broader Biñan community in thought-provoking discussions about art, sustainability, and our shared future,” said Jaime.

The exhibition will run from October 30 to December 02 at the Sevina Park Pavilion in Biñan, Laguna. 

Sevina Park is an 8.1-hectare master-planned community that holds the distinction of being the first and only development in Southeast Asia to achieve Platinum certification under the LEED for Neighborhood Development and LEED for Homes categories and the very first to receive the BERDE Districts 5-Star rating. Easily accessible via the Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX) and close to popular schools, medical institutions, and industrial estates, Sevina Park is envisioned to become a sustainable, close-knit community that lowers global carbon emissions, improves air quality, reduces electricity and water bills, and provides an environment for happier and healthier residents. 

The partnership between CCP and ARTHALAND started with the Details & Abstractions: Selections from the Cultural Center of the Philippines 21AM Collection exhibit at Arthaland Century Pacific Tower in 2022. It was followed by Udtong Tutok: Art At High Noon at the Cebu Exchange in 2023.
