ARTS FESTIVAL DAY 3 : Tam-Awan photo-documentation 19th May 2017
It's a great day with generally blue skies littered randomly with white-daubed clouds to start the formal opening ceremonies of the 8th Tam-awan Arts Festival, Baguio City, Cordillera Administrative Region, Philippines.
As usual, my photography colleague/friend Gio and I arrived at the festival site early. I went up to one of the Dap-ay (a men's dormitory, and civic center.) and upon seeing the coffee cups transported me back to good comfort memories associated with drinking coffee and that brings me to share this very important link about Cordilleran coffee.
I noticed the scattered cigarette butts on public places which will be the last in its days with the President Duterte signing Executive Order 26 (EO 26) on May 19, 2017 for the strict implementation of the Philippine nationwide smoking ban.
I received the 8th TIAP program and a took a digital picture as my bite-sized way helping reduce carbon footprint.

One of Tam-awan Village homegrown showcase is the loom weaving of Cordillera ethno-indigenous fabric. Cordillera communities continue to thrive due to the loom weaving which serves to augment family income.
Finished loom-woven materials form the pride of Cordillera Administrative Region's (Abra, Benguet, Mountain Province, ifugao, Kalinga, Apayao) colorful ethno-indigenous costumes. (My photo CY 2014 shot at Tam-awan Village)
Cordillera rono sticks used in planting assist/support plants (e.g., climbing beans, etc.) who need trellises for their growth and development. Tam-awan artists use wild rono sticks as safety fences which form as art installations in their own right.
