About Us

Project Overview

Pamanang Likha is a heartfelt initiative dedicated to honoring the rich cultural heritage of the Philippines by spotlighting the artistry and legacy of the Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA) awardees. These National Living Treasures are master artisans and cultural guardians who have preserved and enriched the country’s traditional arts through their exceptional skills and dedication.

Our project seeks to celebrate their contributions by sharing their stories, showcasing their crafts, and amplifying their voices to a wider audience. By fostering a deeper appreciation for their work, we aim to inspire national pride, support sustainable livelihoods for the artists, and ensure that their invaluable legacies continue to thrive for generations to come.

Through Pamanang Likha, we bridge the past and the future — preserving traditions while encouraging Filipinos to reconnect with their roots and embrace the beauty of their cultural identity.
