The Peninsula Manila welcomes the start of the ‘Ber months with a vibrant celebration of Filipino artistry at “MaArte at The Pen,” starting today, Thursday, August 29th, 2024.
This much-anticipated event brings together over 147 local brands and artisans under one roof, offering a unique shopping experience that not only supports local talent but also contributes to meaningful causes.
Spread across multiple venues within the iconic hotel—including the Rigodon Ballroom, Garcia-Balagtas-Balmori rooms, select guest rooms on the 5th and 9th floors of the Ayala Tower, The Conservatory, and The Upper Lobby on the second floor—visitors can explore a diverse array of handcrafted fashion pieces, jewelry, accessories, shoes, and home decor that reflect the rich tapestry of Philippine culture, arts, and history.
What sets “MaArte at The Pen” apart is its commitment to showcasing Filipino artisans who keep the country’s rich heritage alive through their craft. This year’s event is open to both in-house and walk-in guests, with no entrance fees, making it accessible to all who wish to experience the best of Filipino creativity from today until Sunday, September 1, 2024, from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
In addition to the shopping experience, the event also serves a noble purpose: part of the proceeds from “MaArte at The Pen” will support the advocacies of the Museum Foundation of the Philippines Inc. and the National Museum of the Philippines. By shopping at the fair, visitors not only bring home unique, beautifully crafted items but also contribute to the preservation and promotion of Philippine cultural heritage.
