PERFORMING AT FPAC

FPAC is a family centered event that showcases the diversity of the Filipino Experience. This year the Pilipino Artist Network invites you to partner with us in celebrating the Legacy of those who’ve come before us. 

Artists play a key role in every successful Festival.  Featured artists of all disciplines are considered FPAC Partner Artists.   

As an FPAC Partner Artist, you can:

• Reach over 25,000 attendees throughout the weekend.
• Sell products, advertise gigs or outreach to new audiences.

Become a member of the Pilipino Artist Network and take advantage of PAN services such as:

• Online Directory to connect you with new audiences
• Pre-Festival Marketing workshops, performances and outreach opportunities
• Networking opportunities with fellow artists
• By partnering with FilAm ARTS, Artists become advocates of Filipino arts and culture, helping to build and strengthen the community

If you would like to become an FPAC Partner Artist, please use this checklist to help you assemble your application for the 16th Annual Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture. We highly suggest you develop a press kit (and/or start a myspace.com webpage) for future use as well.
