May I Plug

The Ang Ilustrador ng Kabataan (Ang INK) Annual Exhibit is coming up! Entitled ANIMALAYA (wehehe), it was organized in coordination with Haribon Foundation, and will showcase various species of endangered animals rendered by Inkies within the context of different environmental issues. Opening is at 5:30 PM on August 23, 2005 at the Marikina Riverbanks Mall. May libreng pagkain!

During the meeting last Saturday, a bunch of interesting workshop schedules at the Raya School were also passed around. Here are a couple I'm quite interested in:
