College of Fine Arts, University of the Philippines, Diliman

Congratulations to our 2009 Graduates!

As the schoolyear draws to a close, we prepare for the CFA Candlelight Ceremony to the held on Saturday, 25 April 2009 at the Bathalaman Garden of the College of Fine Arts. More than 150 senior students are expected to graduate from the various programs of CFA. We are extremely honored to have as our guest speaker at the Candlelight Ceremony, Mr Kenneth Cobonpue, an internationally acclaimed Filipino designer whose achievements, in innovative furniture design, have been a source of pride for the country and an inspiration for aspiring artists and designers.

The last month has been very hectic for everyone with finals and thesis deliberations. Guests and panelists at our thesis deliberations were very impressed with the projects and final output of the seniors. The thesis works of our students are currently on exhibit at the Corredor Gallery, the Amorsolo Hall, and at the Annex, SM North Edsa.

We have also just completed our Admissions process and will be announcing the results of the Talent Determination Test ( TDT) by April 17, 2009.

Our summer art workshops for children and adults will also start on Monday, 13 April 2009. We invite you and your families to join our fun workshops and create your own original art work.

Meanwhile we wish you all a blessed Easter.

Best always.

Tina Colayco
