Join us for The Art of Belonging: A Trilogy of Short Plays & Films, an intimate showcase that celebrates the rich tapestry of the Filipino and Filipino American experience in the Midwest. This event features the literary gems of Bienvenido Santos, presented in dialogue with 16mm home movies by Nicholas Viernes.

Hosted by CIRCA Pintig in partnership with the Filipino American Historical Society of Chicago, Filipino American National Historical Society of Greater Chicago, and the Rizal Center, this gathering honors our community’s vibrant history and the power of storytelling in fostering a sense of belonging and identity.

Sponsored in part by a microgrant from the Illinois Humanities Activating History, your presence at this event is invaluable as we come together to uphold our shared histories and cherished traditions. We look forward to welcoming you!
