🇵🇭 PH CONSULATE CELEBRATES FILIPINO INDIGENOUS HERITAGE THROUGH T’BOLI DANCE WORKSHOP
In celebration of Filipino American History Month and National Indigenous Peoples Month, the Philippine Consulate General in San Francisco, in partnership with Parangal Dance Company, held a T’boli Kehetotol Dance Workshop on 16 October 2026 at Kalayaan Hall, Philippine Center.

The workshop featured T’boli cultural master Yebong Lyn Amfan Buti, who shared the beauty and significance of T’boli dance through traditional performances and an interactive session. The event brought together members of the diplomatic corps, Filipino American cultural organizations, and the community in celebrating the Philippines' rich Indigenous heritage.

In his welcome remarks, Consul General Arnel G. Talisayon emphasized the importance of preserving Indigenous traditions for future generations. As the Philippines and the United States commemorate 80 years of diplomatic relations, the Consulate continues to promote cultural understanding, celebrate Filipino heritage, and strengthen people-to-people ties through cultural diplomacy.

Join us for a special cultural exchange weekend celebrating the richness, resilience, and living traditions of Filipino heritage through the knowledge and artistry of our culture bearers. 
We are honored to welcome Ate Jenny Bawer Young, a master Kalinga weaver and cultural practitioner whose life’s work is rooted in the traditions passed down by her parents and grandparents in the Cordillera region of the Philippines. From laga (traditional backstrap weaving) to music, chants, and dances, Jenny carries forward the ancestral knowledge and artistic practices that have sustained Kalinga identity across generations.

Since moving to California in 2006, Jenny has become a vital resource for the Filipino American community, sharing her knowledge through cultural performances, workshops, and her leadership with Kalingafornia Laga, a women’s collective committed to preserving and promoting Kalinga weaving and cultural traditions in the Bay Area. Her work reminds us that cultural heritage is not simply something we inherit—it is something we practice, nurture, share, and pass on. 
This Filipino American History Month, come together with us to learn from our culture bearers, deepen our understanding of Indigenous Filipino traditions, and celebrate the stories, artistry, and ancestral wisdom that connect us across generations and across oceans.

Let’s honor the hands that weave, the voices that sing, the bodies that dance, and the knowledge keepers who keep our cultures alive.

Registration for the dance workshops are still open. Link in bio.
