The art scene in the metro is definitely thriving, with lots of exhibits and newly-opened art galleries that have come up. Hooray for the art community! As an initiative to further boost the local art scene, an art show will be held this Saturday, April 21, this time in one of the most happening places now: Poblacion.
“Art in Poblacion” is an event where experts of both contemporary and classical art are coming together. If you’re an art enthusiast, here’s why you should go:
Barangay Poblacion is the hippest and newest home of the arts in the heart of Makati city. This neighborhood has a vibrant charm that can be seen from its cozy bars, hidden food gems and underground vibe during night time. And if there’s one place in Poblacion that speaks so much about the district’s character, it’s The Ruins. The place screams art and culture, and it’s one of the hippest venues in that area.
