The event is presented as part of a project by FRIENDS (Filipinos Rising and Alcove Centre for the Arts) to begin the work of creating a community-sourced mental health and care card deck made through BalikLoob, an artist-led, relational and care-based process, imagined and supported by Precious DeLeon, Ryle Ramirez, Jordan Baylon, and one of TRUCK’s current Main Space artists, Harvey Nichol.
Filipinos Rising, a unifying coalition of Filipino-Canadians from diverse generations and backgrounds, is dedicated to cultivating a resilient and empowered community across Alberta and Canada. Our mission is to foster a society where every Filipino-Canadian is heard, involved, and influential in shaping equitable and inclusive policies.
The Alcove Centre for the Arts was founded in 2020 by Bethel Afework and Dennis Lee, two friends from university. They shared a vision for a creative social space where they could hang out with their friends and be free to indulge their creativity.
