The Embassy of the Philippines in Canada joins the nation in celebrating the National Arts Month (NAM) 2023, with this year’s theme “ANI NG SINING, BUNGA NG GALING.” Said theme recognizes excellence in the arts as both a source of bounty despite challenging times, and a product of the passion of Filipino artists and cultural workers.

Promulgated by then President Corazon Aquino in 1991, Presidential Proclamation No. 683 declared February of every year as National Arts Month to celebrate the artistic excellence and pay tribute to the uniqueness and diversity of the Filipino heritage and culture.
