Kung ang sining para saโ€™yo ay higit pa sa pagguhit at pagtatanghalโ€”kung itoโ€™y tungkol sa kultura, pananaliksik, at pagpapahalaga sa ating pagka-Pilipinoโ€”may paparating na programa na tiyak na magpupukaw ng iyong interes.

Hatid ng UP Manila Philippine Arts Program (BAPA), mag-aalok ang Lakbay Sining ng mga kwento, talakayan, at sining na magbibigay-liwanag sa kung ano ang Philippine Arts at paano ito hinuhubog sa UPM.

Abangan at makilahok. Isang lakbay tungo sa sining at kultura ang naghihintay.

The UP Manila Department of Arts and Communication proudly celebrates its faculty member, Mr. Ryan Machado, as his film โ€œRumaragasa (Raging)โ€ heads to its international premiere at the 76th Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale). The full-length feature starring Elijah Canlas, Ron Angeles, and Reynald Santos will be showcased under the Panorama section of the film festival from February 12 to 22, 2026, in Germany. "Rumaragasa (Raging)" was previously screened at Cinemalaya 2025 where it won Best Cinematography and Best Sound Design.

This marks Mr. Machado's second Berlinale entry after his debut film, "Huling Palabas", was shortlisted and screened for the Generation 14plus category in 2024. DAC is deeply proud and honored to celebrate this significant milestone in Mr. Machadoโ€™s creative journey. Undoubtedly, his brilliant works continue to contribute meaningfully to the growing presence of Philippine cinema on the global stage.

ATTN: UP Manila Students
Re: GE Classes and Requests

DAC will not be accommodating petitions to open additional GE classes and requests for additional slots EXCEPT when the student is GRADUATING this Second Semester, 2025-2026; in which case the approval of additional slots is still subject to the teacher's prerogative.

Most of our faculty members have already been assigned a 15/18-unit teaching load. A number of our faculty members are on reduced teaching load as they need to focus on their graduate studies. The sections that are opened are all that we can offer.
