The
Marine Exhibit. The marine exhibit is located on the ground floor
of the new Museo Sang Bata Sa Negros Building. This is situated along
the coast of Barangay Old Sagay facing the Carbin Reef.
This Marine exhibit
will have several components. The first component is the exhibit on
display which is primarily educational in nature and geared towards
children. By showing this to children it is intended to increase their
awareness and concern towards the marine environment. The second component
is that all exhbits are based on research done by the Sagay Marine Reserve
Dept. and the museum staff. As the research and actual surveys is ongoing,
the museum serve as a marine laboratory for marine students and other
interested persons. The third component is the livelihood marine conservation
lectures. The museum together with Sagay Marine Reserve Dept. will be
conducting marine conservation lectures to the seaside communities in
the area. During such lectures, some ideas and even actual training
on some livelihood opportunities will be given to interested groups. |

LAS
ISLAS FILIPINAS The Philippines is a archipelago of 7, 107 islands.
We are gifted with mountain peaks, white sandy beaches, green countrysides
and an inviting climate of cool and warm winds. The Filipino people are
friendly, peaceful, and freedom-loving. We have a flair for the arts and
a zest for living.
A legend once told, that a lovely Goddess in a playful mood, once cast a handful of emeralds into the blue waters, and where these jewels fell, there rose as island so deep green, which today known as the Philippines. Folk arts are everywhere around us. We wear them , like fiber cloths and the bakya; we celebrate with them like the goings and colorful masks; we use them in our homes like pots, baskets and mats. As thousands of islands make up this nation, thousands of Filipino hands shape our arts and crafts. Different interpretations reveal our cultural richness and diversity but coming from one and the same identity….Filipino! Mats, Hats and baskets are everyday objects in the country. So common, that they are often taken for granted. Look closely at these objects and you will see the lives of people linked to a tradition and a lifestyle that has endured for many generations. Look on
how cleverly they are made! Designs conceived in indigenous minds, brought
to life by creative hands passed on from generation to generation… |
