“Lakbai Diwa, Diasporic Spirit”

Lakbai Diwa, Diasporic Spirit will bring visibility and collective cultural healing to the Pilipina community in San Francisco’s SOMA neighborhood. The project will be anchored by site-specific dance performances, workshops, art installations, and a ceremonial procession that will feature balangays, traditional Pilipino boats, as a metaphor for how this island culture has been affected by colonialism, displacement and immigration.
