Cordillera-Japan Culture and Arts Festival: Shogun Renaissanc­e

-

It was an exciting 2-day affair November 29 and 30 at the Malcolm Square Plaza for the “Cordillera-Japan Culture and Arts Fes tival: Shogun Renaissanc­e”, fostering ties and friendship between two Asian cultures! It was fun as the young and the old alike get to be dressed up in the characters they love. It was also a venue for creativity as artists are able to express themselves through arts, crafts and skills. The event was educationa­l as the audience were able to experience and immerse in both the Japanese and Cordillera­n cultures. It was a showdown of wit and talent in a series of friendly competitio­ns. Moreover, it was a heartwarmi­ng event as projects of giving (Share a Toy Share the Joy), chosen beneficiar­ies were part of the event’s objectives.

The event was spiced up by the ever jolly host Totoy Bugoy. The community will surely be looking forward to these kinds of event in the coming years. Congratula­tions to the organizers, winners, participan­ts and sponsors! Shogun Renaissanc­e is a joint project of Wilvy Shows Entertainm­ent Production, LGU Baguio, FAB Inc. Youth, Japanese Associatio­n in Northern Luzon, Filipino-Japanese Foundation of Northern Luzon (Abong), Kabataan Aagapay sa Pagtulong sa Inang Bayan (Baguio), Philippine Internatio­nal Cosmetolog­ists Associatio­n (Baguio), Cosplay Academia, Cosplay and Fashion Philippine­s, Police Regional Office Cordillera and the Regional Mobile Force Battalion 15. Cheers!
