Remembrance Day. Reflecting on the sacrifice of Canadians in war. But also on those of Viet Nam, both soldiers and civilians, who perished by the millions in th...e American war. Got to the Bn Dc Memorial Temple in Cu Chi a few years back. A memorial to more than 44,000 martyrs in the region - including mothers, whose names are displayed in tier upon tier along three long walls. Names tended by those maintaining the candles.

Just a year ago today, together we poured our heart and soul, intensely preparing for our 10th year celebration, BANYAN: an Intercultural Ceremonial Performance"...

Webinar series presented by the Victoria Filipino Canadian Association (VFCA) with the support of the City of Victoria, Arts, Culture and Events. The series aim to engage the audiences in the discourse surrounding cultures in diaspora, in this context, the Philippine culture as projected through performance. It focuses on three themes: re-negotiating identity through performance; re-imagining spaces and materials for performance; and revitalizing identity through performance.
