A night filled with performers, music, authentic Filipino cuisine and much more is prescribed for Kultura Pilipinas’ culture night on May 4.
The theme for this year’s culture night is “Laro Tayo!” which translates to “let’s play!” — taking the theme of a game show. The night will consist of a performance from YouTube artist JR Aquino and dinner will be catered from family owned restaurant Maynila Filipino. An informational booth will also be present to provide students an insight of some of the organizations that Kultura Pilipinas works with. A skit portrayed as a talent show will take place.
“This is KP’s biggest event of the year and we want it to make it bigger and better than previous years,” Kultura Pilipinas’ Senior Advisor Andrea Dimayuga said. “Culture nights are an opportunity for student groups to dedicate their weekend to show the community who they are and we hope that we can show the playful side of the Filipino culture.”
The annual culture night is an opportunity for the student group to fundraise and teach the community about the Filipino culture. The event will be in the EMU Ballroom, and doors open at 4:30 p.m. before an official starting time of 5 p.m. Student tickets are $6, general admission is $9 and all benefits collected will fund Kultura Pilipinas.
