The Jeepney Arts Festival pays homage to the Philippine jeepney as the true icon of Filipino artistry, ingenuity, resiliency, and entrepreneurship.
With the aim to bring back the old glory days of fun and vibrant jeepneys in Manila, the Philippines will stop for three days on 20-22 September 2012 to relive the bayanihan spirit by repainting the jeepneys with spectacular sights of the country with the design theme “Its More Fun in the Philippines.”
Artists, students, local government units, the private sector, and concerned individuals around the Philippines are being called to do their own share in reviving our folk arts and make Manila as a roving museum of arts and culture, while creating awareness about the fascinating destinations across the islands.
The finest artists of “Design Week Philippines” will create their own masterpiece as “Tribute Arts for Philippine Jeepneys.” It will showcase various art pieces from the fields of fashion jewelry, painting, photography, sculpture, and more. Join the auction at the ManilART 12, the 4th Philippine Art Fair, on 3 October 2012 from 5:00pm- 7:00pm at the SMX Convention Center. Proceeds will go to the rehabilitation of Philippine jeepneys.
International buyers and the media in attendance will also have fun riding the newly- designed jeepneys at the upcoming PATA Travel Mart and Manila Fame!
Regular Jeepney Tours will run during the festival in which an exciting itinerary awaits everyone onboard the newly painted tourism jeepneys.
