Events Happening this Weekend: March 2-4, 2018

Can you believe it’s already two months since the start of 2018, and waking up tomorrow means starting on our third month? We’ve all been through a lot, we know. We’ve only been through a quarter of 2018, which means there’s still a lot left to discover. Summer is almost here, so why not take a break this weekend and enjoy this slew of events for the first week of March:

Art Fair Philippines 2018 (March 1 – 4)

It may have come a few weeks later than usual, but it’s finally back! Art Fair Philippines 2018 is bigger and better than before! More floor space at The Link Carpark with room for more than just the classics, including a section dedicated to photography! Tickets are at Php 350.

Ortigas Art Festival (until March 26)

Are you an avid art enthusiast but feel like Makati is a bit far from where you live? How about Capitol Commons?

Head on over to Estancia Bridge at Capitol Commons for the first-ever Ortigas Art Festival!

REP presents Silent Sky (March 2 – 25)

Silent Sky is a story that harmonizes science, history, family, love, and the passion of a young woman who forged her own path through a society bent on keeping a woman in her place. It features some of the most captivating performers including Cathy Azanza-Dy, who plays Henrietta Leavitt.

After War: World War II (until March 4)

World War II was a mess, and our country was right in the middle of it.

Drop by the Ayala Museum this weekend for the final stretch of After War: World War II Film Festival and Exhibition. Entrance is absolutely free.
