There is a wealth of talent in this country that only need a chance to become outstanding artists. The Asian Cultural Council Philippines (ACCP) raises funds to help make this happen by providing grants for them to learn from and be exposed to other artists in Asia and in the United States.
Some noted ACCP grantees include Lucrecia Kasilag and Jose Maceda (both national artists for music); Tikoy Aguiluz (noted film maker); Jose Joya (CCP Gawad award and national artist for visual arts) and Alice Reyes (founder of Ballet Philippines) to name a few. The ACC fellowship program has supported over 600 Asian and American artist scholars since its inception.
The Finale Art File is located in the La Fuerza Building (Gate1), 2214 Pasong Tamo, Makati. The online catalogue will be available by January 24 atwww.asianculturalcouncil.org.
