The local government of Manila will conclude its celebration of National Arts Month with the holding of a day-long activity dubbed as "Obrang Manileño, and "Obra ng Bayan," on Thursday, February 29.

Manila Mayor Honey Lacuna-Pangan is inviting the public to join the activities that will be held at the Kartilya ng Katipunan starting at 8 a.m. on Thursday.

She said the whole-day affair will be done under the leadership of the city's Department of Tourism, Culture and Arts of Manila (DTCAM) headed by Charlie Dungo and the Liga ng mga Barangay-Manila under its president, Councilor Lei Lacuna.


Various forms of art will be featured during the event, including the "Tintang Manileno" tattoo artists; "LaraJuan" photography; "Guhit Pinta" paint artists; "Cine Kartilya" films and "Sayawit" song and dance performances.


"Inaanyayahan ko po kayo, kung wala kayong gagawin,  buong araw ito bilang pagtatapos ng arts month.  Iba't-ibang medium of art ang  inyong matutunghayan (I invite you, this is a whole day event as we end the arts month. You can enjoy different mediums of art)," the mayor said.

"Marami tayong magagaling sa Maynila na gumagawa ng obra na nagta-tattoo. Para maalis na din ang stigma na ang tattoo ay masama.  Actually, it is also a form of art at maraming Manileños ang magaling mag-tattoo (We have a lot of talented people in Manila who do tattoo works. We have to get rid of the stigma that tattoos are bad. Actually, it is also a form of art and many Manileños are good at tattooing)," she said.

Councilor Lei said "Makiindak sa musikang dala ng Sayawit, maantig sa pelikulang handog ng Cine Kartilya, magpinta nang malaya sa Guhit Pinta, ipakita ang husay sa pagpitik sa LaraJuan at tunghayan ang ibat ibang kulay sa Tintang Manileno (Let's dance to the music of Sayawit, be moved by the film offered by Cine Kartilya, paint freely in Guhit Pinta, show your flicking skills in LaraJuan, and explore different colors in Tintang Manileno)."
