Me and my friends went to Hibalag on August 21, 2024, at 6:00 PM, organized by Silliman University. The event aimed to celebrate school spirit and promote cultural unity. we went around the venue, enjoying various foods and booths. Students, and local vendors worked together to bring the event to life.
This event taught me to appreciate the rich cultural diversity within the community. Initially, The level of creativity and collaboration surprised me this time 'round. A particular booth that showcased local crafts stood out for its authenticity and artistry. The most enjoyable part was engaging with different cultural exhibits.
This experience motivated me to actively participate in future cultural events and support local artisans. I plan to contribute as a volunteer in future Hibalag celebrations. If I could enhance the experience, I would organize a cultural workshop to further engage attendees.
Because of this activity, I am more aware of the importance of cultural preservation and community celebration.
