 Dates: Saturday, September 8th and Sunday, September 9th, 2007 Time: 10 am – 6 pm Price: $5 @ door per day Location: Point Fermin Park, 607 W. Paseo Del Mar, San Pedro, CA 90731 Mission: As a community arts program, the 16th Annual Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture partners with the artists, community organizations, businesses and individuals to build community by engaging people of diverse backgrounds through the production and presentation of multidisciplinary artistic and cultural expressions. Seen as a common ground for our multi-tribal, multi-generational and multilingual community, the community-organized Festival provides unique programming focusing on families, youth and seniors. Not only a gateway of cultural exploration for Filipino Americans, the festival is also an opportunity for non-Filipinos to experience more complex explorations of Filipino culture within the multicultural landscape of Los Angeles. This in turn allows non-Filipinos to learn, experience, better understand, and ultimately build respect for our multi-faceted Filipino culture.
