56th Cultural Season Opens

56th Cultural Season Opens

A concert by the Silliman University Gratitude and Goodwill Ambassadors and the Ating Pamana set the tone for a new cultural season, with the start of School Year 2018-2019.

Their concert Requiem by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart at the Romeo P. Ariniego Art Gallery on campus opened the 56th Cultural Season. It was done under the direction of College of Performing and Visual Arts professor Dr. Elizabeth Susan V. Suarez.

Each semester, Silliman University mounts five shows at the Luce and organizes different lectures and art exhibits across the campus. It brings into both Silliman and the larger community of Dumaguete artists from around the country and the globe, on certain occasions in partnership with foreign embassies in the Philippines, for activities that promote culture and the arts.

It was also during the concert when the new members of the Silliman University Culture and Arts Council (SUCAC) and its advisory board were formally introduced.
