Upcoming Event: Hilway: A Cultural Night by UP Tomo-Kai

Shatter the screen of illusions and wrench yourself away from the cables that bind you. With open eyes, freedom is within your reach. Step up, leap forward, and make your mark.  Experience the best of two cultures as the UP Philippines-Japan Friendship club, also known as UP Tomo-Kai, holds its 28th Anniversary Month Celebration this April 2019.  With a new branding of Iro no Kyoui, meaning Wonders of Color, they are excited to show you a new color of UP Tomo-Kai each year starting with this year’s anniversary month.

This year’s theme, Kaihou, which means liberation, release or setting free – aims to empower the audience through different activities and performances showing our appreciation of the uniqueness of two countries.

Hilway: A Cultural Night will celebrate freedom with live performances, exciting games, food, and Filipino-Japanese culture on April 26 at the UP Diliman College of Science Amphitheatre.  Watch local performing artists, experience Japanese and Filipino culture and express your freedom in this cultural event.  This will be the culminating event of UP Tomo-Kai’s 28th Anniversary Month and aims to liberate your hearts and minds by understanding the diversity of cultures.
