-

MUCH-CELEBRATED traveling exhibition War of our Fathers is set to do a pit stop in Davao on May 31 at SM City Davao, Annex.

The said Veterans Bank World War II exhibit features WW II photograph­s, maps, artifacts and memorabili­a that pay tribute to the patriotism of Filipinos. With the showcase, the Veterans Bank and SM City Davao aim to share to the public, especially the youth sector, what it was like to live in the time of the World War.

The collection has extensivel­y travelled throughout the country since 2006 and has been displayed in government offices, museums, schools, and malls on over 40 cities and municipali­ties. In 2009, it was exhibited at the Nanjing War Memorial Museum in China.

The War of our Fathers has received the recognitio­n of several award-giving bodies including the Anvil Awards, Gold Quill Awards, and the Panata Awards. Most recently, it received an Award of Excellence for Communicat­ion Manage- ment from the 10th Philippine Quill Awards presented by IABC Philippine­s.
