Held earlier this month from December 9 to 13, the country’s national art fair pulled through with its

The theme alludes to the necessary adjustments to sustain arts and culture in our current context; this is in line with the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA)’s 2020 theme for Museums and Galleries Month, “Engaging Exhibitions for Emerging Generations.”
Patrons and art lovers were able to visit
ManilART both onsite and online. At the venue, contactless visit and social distancing protocols were strictly observed. Despite fewer casual visitors (no minors below 18 allowed), art enthusiasts, collectors and buyers came with a clear purpose.
