PURPLE POWER. The Cultural Center of the Philippines lights up the Tanghalang Pambasan (CCP Main Building), the Bamboo Pavilion at Liwasang Kalikhasan, and the Tanghalang Ignacio B. Gimenez (CCP Blackbox Theater) in purple to celebrate the National Women’s Month this March. Designed by Camille Balistoy and Jericho Pagana, executed by the Production Design and Technical Services Division under the Production and Exhibition Department, the façade lighting is the leading art institution’s way of recognizing the Filipino women’s contribution to nation-building and putting the spotlight on their accomplishments. Through its various programs and projects, the CCP advocates women’s empowerment and gender equality. (Photo by RODEL VALIENTE)
