We invite you to come back to the Festival, and bring new friends and family members to the beautiful seaside park Pt. Fermin, and enjoy the entertainment, food, marketplace and FUN for the whole family. If this will be your first time, welcome! Tuloy po kayong lahat!

FPAC is the largest and longest running annual Filipino tradition in Southern California -
…85 exhibitors…
…450 volunteers…
…1,200 artists…
and over 25,000 guests keep FPAC alive year after year. It is you, the community, who have supported this celebration, make it all possible.

This year’s theme is katutubong landas tungo masaganang bukas – “native ways toward a prosperous future.”

It is our native ways, our traditions, that anchor our community. It is also through our native ways, our human experiences, that we find common threads that interweave the diverse communities that make up our landscape. Whether we refer to “community” as the youth, the various groups that make up Los Angeles, or the community of Pilipinos worldwide, it is our native ways – of song, of dance, of art, of cuisine, of cultivating the earth – that we pass on to future generations, to continue to ensure a prosperous future.

Visit www.filamarts.org now. The festival runs from Sept 6-7m 2008. Admission at the door is $7.  Bring your sunscreen, folding chairs and enjoy the whole day!
