BEYOND MASSKARA | Off the beaten path in Southern Negros

Quick Summary:

The fourth weekend of October marks the highlights of the annual MassKara Festival in Bacolod City.

This year’s theme is "Sapphire Celebration” to commemorate the 45th edition of the City of Smiles’ world-famous fiesta whose portmanteau literally translates to "many faces” as depicted in the smiling masks worn by festival participants.

Together with members of the Art Association of Bacolod, Montalvo and Santiago conceptualized the festival not to mask the Bacolodnons’ grief but to rise as a city in defiance of adversity.
