MANILA, Philippines - Makati will once again host the much-anticipated Art Fair Philippines, organized by Philippine Art Events Inc. To make this year’s fair more exciting and to encourage participation from the international community, the Art Fair welcomes artists from other Southeast Asian countries to join the exhibition.
Spaces for 33 galleries, eight of them based outside the Philippines, will spread out over two levels. The Art Fair tapped Kenneth Cobonpue and his team to help design the layout of the exhibition space. Food and drinks will be available through partners Kai Restaurant, The Straits Wine Company, and Coca Cola.
Art Fair Philippines is just one of the many projects of Makati promoting the best of Filipino talent. Each year, the Leader City tries to outdo itself, always creating projects that are bigger, bolder and faster.
Many will agree that Makati is a top urban destination, a prime model in terms of highly developed cities in the Philippines. Its cosmopolitan and international appeal continue to attract international companies, expats and tourists alike.
Makati keeps on providing avenues for connection and participation. New developments are always on the rise in the real estate, hospitality, and food and beverage industries. Surely, there are more opportunities for business and pleasure in Makati than ever.
