VSU hosts culture and arts festival as regional PASUC turns 50

Nine colleges and universities in Eastern Visayas converged at Visayas State University in Baybay City, Leyte for a showdown of creativity and talent. 

The regional leg of Philippine Association of State Universities and Colleges (PASUC) conducted a one-day event, dubbed the Culture and Arts Festival, on October 27, 2017, Friday.

“The conduct of this Culture and the Arts Festival sets the stage towards a more meaningful appreciation of our own culture,” says Dr. Dominador O. Aguirre, President of PASUC-8 and Eastern Visayas State University. 

“Culture and the arts set the strong foundation of our nationhood. It lifts the spirit and provides soul to our society”, he added.

“VSU hopes that you will appreciate and enjoy all the activities in this festival and experience a glimpse of culture and the arts in the region” says Dr. Remberto A. Patindol, Vice-President for Administration and Finance as he welcomes the different competing teams.
