80 YEARS: MAPANIQUE'S ECHOING SONGS OF SURVIVAL
MANILA, PHILIPPINES — A small volunteer group of the Malaya Lolas put together a project in partnership with De La Salle University Libraries and supported by KAISA KA. An exhibit entitled "80 YEARS: MAPANIQUE'S ECHOING SONG OF SURVIVAL"
This volunteer-produced exhibit serves as a poignant tribute to the 80th anniversary of the Siege of Mapanique, a significant event that holds historical importance. Through meticulous curation and thoughtful presentation, the exhibit delves into the intricate details of the siege, shedding light on the experiences of those involved and the impact it had on the local community. Visitors are invited to immerse themselves in the narratives of courage, resilience, and sacrifice that characterized this pivotal moment in history. By showcasing personal narratives, written accounts, images, and interactive displays, this exhibition aims to depict the Malaya Lolas' experiences, shed light on their lasting impact, and cultivate a greater comprehension of the continued fight for justice and recovery. It stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of remembrance and the power of collective storytelling in preserving our shared past.
Due to the impending Super Typhoon Pepito, the exhibit that was supposed to open on November 18, 2024, is currently suspended until further notice.
