ARTS MONTH CELEBRATION IN ISABELA CITY






The February is known to be the Arts Month as declared by the National Commission on Culture and Arts (NCCA) and Honorable Mayor Cherrylyn Santos - Akbar celebrates the occasion thru the City Tourism Office vigorously. It was a two days celebration topping the pioneering assembly of the ARTES de Isabela plus the general assembly of the organized tourism club of the different schools.
 ARTES (Artists’ Expression) de Isabela emerged right after the small group of struggling artists brainstormed the possibility of forming a group last December 2007. And they will revitalized the beautiful image of Isabela City because at present Isabela City and Basilan Province as a whole is very intimidating. Henceforth, the group invited other artists in Isabela City regardless of the skills they possess and there were several meetings done, the group decided to have a general assembly last February 25, 2009 at the City Gymnasium in line with the present celebration. 
 Mr. Ramon T. Nuñal gave his inspirational message in behalf of the Honorable Mayor. Mr. Felipe David Malcampo from the Philippine Information Agency (PIA) expresses the bountiful meaning of arts and the culture, its differences in preference to its time being. 
 February 26, 2009 the pioneering Tourism Club Officers of Begang National High School, Isabela City National High School and Basilan State College had the general assembly with the mass oath taking rendered by Mr. Jayson A. Tubil – City Tourism Officer. After the mass oath taking, as a legacy to the pioneering club, there was a Mangrove Planting held at Panigayan Barangay.
