GATE creates Culture and Arts TWG
LINGAYEN --- Gov. Amado T. Espino, Jr. created a technical working group (TWG) called “Dangoan Pangasinan” to plan, create, and carry out a program on Pangasinan culture and arts.
Under Executive Order No. 0073-2009, otherwise known as Pangasinan Culture and Arts Group, the TWG was tasked to do the following: formulate and implement programs on Pangasinan culture and arts; coordinate with other agencies concerning cultural and artistic performances and art exhibits; and create a working plan for the management and administration of the Sison Auditorium.
This initiative aims to relive, promote and preserve the distinctiveness of Pangasinan culture through music and arts, crafts, dance and drama which are uniquely Pangasinan.
According to the Governor, “Pangasinan’s culture is known for its diversity and uniqueness developed by an intricate blending of indigenous cultural fibers.”
Gov. Espino said that the undertaking is also of significant timing since the repair and renovation of Sison Auditorium is nearing its completion.
With its intricate design and fixture, the auditorium will house the Pangasinan’s Culture and Arts Center to host programs and exhibitions covering a wide range of performing, visual and literary arts of Pangasinan and others.
According to Gov. Espino, the Sison Auditorium was used to be the best venue for cultural shows of the country outside Metro Manila. But due to long years of neglect, the auditorium lost its luster.
With its renovation, the Sison Auditorium will reclaim its old glory as the finest auditorium outside Metro Manila, the Governor said.
The TWG is composed of Gov. Espino as Honorary Chairman; Vice Gov. Marlyn Primicias-Agabas and Provincial Administrator Rafael F. Baraan as Honorary Vice-Chairmen with various department heads and provincial employees as members. Dea Que Hoffman has been designated as executive director.
During major events such as Pista’y Dayat and “Agew ya Kawayangan” 2009, the provincial government has staged cultural nights to instill a deep sense of awareness and appreciation of Pangasinan culture among the youth. (PIO by Ninia F. Nicolas)
