Festival of Philippine Arts and Cultures Call for Artists | #FPAC24 #OnPilipinoTime

Deadline for submissions: 11pm PST, October 08, 2015

As we begin Filipino Heritage Month, FilAm ARTS is pleased to announce a call for artists for FPAC 2015 — the 24th Annual Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture (FPAC). It will be held at El Pueblo Historical Monument, 125 Paseo De La Plaza, Los Angeles, CA 90012 on Saturday November 7, 2015. 

FPAC is the largest celebration of Filipino arts and culture in Southern California, with the most extensive gathering of multidisciplinary Filipino artists every year. The festival will feature performances from many creative disciplines including Traditional, Folk, and Contemporary Art, Dance, Theatre, Music, Visual Arts, and Literary Arts. The festival is free and open to the public and we expect to reach an audience of over 10,000 this year.  

This year’s theme is “Balik Tanaw, Pananaw Bukas” a Tagalog phrase meaning “Looking Back, Looking Forward.”  While rooted in the native tongue of the motherland, this year’s theme celebrates the rich experiences of being Filipino American. As a community we honor the culture paved by our ancestors, and move forward with a grateful understanding of our Filipino American history. This is the spirit that keeps FPAC going, largely sustained by the dedicated audiences that return to the fest every year.

This open call is for contemporary and traditional artists and performers. All levels of talent are encouraged to apply and submit your work. We are looking for artists and performers that do one or more of the following:
Showcase the Filipino and Filipino-American experience
Incorporate the theme “Balik tanaw, Pananaw bukas”
Engage the audience
Collaborate across artistic disciplines
Collaborate across traditional and contemporary genres

All submissions will be reviewed by a Curatorial Panel that will select a diverse set of artists and performers based on the above criteria, as well as quality of work, and potential audience reach. 

The festival is accepting submissions now. 
The deadline for submissions is 11:00pm PST on Thursday October 8, 2015.
