Pinto Art Museum Celebrates ‘Buen Viaje: Manila-Acapulco-Manila’ Exhibit Closing with Fun Activities

The event will feature music by a Mariachi band, dancing higantes, and the arrival of the image of the Virgin of Peace and Good Voyage from the Antipolo Cathedral.

A costume contest will be held for attendees wearing costumes inspired by Mexican artists like Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, and many others. Prizes will be given to the attendees with the best attire.

The “Buen Viaje: Manila-Acapulco-Manila” exhibition celebrated the history and culture shared between Mexico and the Philippines. It featured a collection of artworks, vintage maps, prints, and artifacts from the Manila Galleon trade route that connected Manila and Acapulco. — Abigail Adriatico
