Experience an intimate traditional Filipino dinner inspired by kapwa (Tagalog for 'shared identity' and 'togetherness’) with artist Marikit Santiago.

Join us at 4A to bask in the surrounds of Marikit’s new exhibition For us sinners, and gather around an expansive banana-leaf-adorned table to employ the Filipino kamayan method of eating and mixing food items with your hands.

4A's Kamayan & Kapwa feast will include a delectable medley of Filipino cuisines: chicken humba, BBQ pork, crunchy chicken, aromatic pinakbet vegetables, and a rice mound.

Consumed together in the spirit of congregation, this specially-curated meal celebrates the co-mingling of language, cultures, and storytelling.

This event coincides with the launch of Marikit’s new book For us sinners, designed by Garry Trinh and available to purchase exclusively at 4A.

Kamayan at Kapwa: Pangkomunal na Salu-salo

Linggo 8 Mayo // 5pm - 7pm

Maranasan ang isang pribadong tradisyunal na komunal na handaang Filipino na kumuha ng inspirasyon sa terminong Tagalog na kapwa, na nangangahulugan ng sama-samang pagkakakilanlan at pagkakaisa

Magpainit sa paligid ng bagong eksibisyon ni Marikit Santiago na pinamagatang Para sa Ating mga Makasalanan bago magtipon sa paligid ng isang malaking lamesa na pinalamutian ng dahon ng saging gamit ang paraan ng pagkaing Filipino at paghahalo-halo ng mga pagkain gamit ang iyong mga kamay. Ang mga putahe ng 4A’s Kamayan at Kapwa ay naglalaman ng mga masasarap na sari-saring lutong Filipino, kasama ang malutong na pritong manok, mababagong gulay, at mga tumpok ng kanin. Pagsasaluhan sa diwa ng pagtitipon-tipon, ang espesyal na piniling pagkain ay nagdiriwang ng pagsasama-sama ng wika, mga kultura at salaysay.

Upang tapusin ang gabi, ang mga bisita ay tatanggap ng kopya ng bagong lathalang Para sa Ating mga Makasalanan na limitado ang edisyon at may lagda ni Marikit, ito ay inilimbag ng eksklusibo para sa programa.
