To all our teachers, thank you for your patience, dedication, passion, and unwavering commitment to education. Thank you for believing in every learner, encouraging every dream, and making a difference that extends far beyond the classroom.

Pursuant to Presidential Proclamation No. 1906, s. 2009, the Caraga State University Cabadbaran Campus – University Center for Culture and the Arts (UCCA) joins the nation in celebrating National Indigenous Peoples Month this October 2026.

This month, we honor the rich cultural heritage, artistic expressions, ancestral wisdom, and enduring traditions of our Indigenous Peoples, whose invaluable contributions continue to enrich the diverse cultural identity of our nation.

Like the threads of a woven fabric, our cultures may carry different colors, patterns, and stories, yet together they form a beautiful tapestry of shared heritage.

As advocates of culture and the arts, may we continue to recognize Indigenous voices, respect their rights, celebrate their identities, and support the preservation of their living traditions** for generations to come.

Every artwork carries more than what meets the eye—it holds stories, memories, questions, struggles, and dreams waiting to be understood.

As we celebrate Mindanao Art 2026, the CSUCC Literary and Visual Arts (LVA) Unit joins in appreciating art not simply for how it looks, but for what it speaks, preserves, and awakens within us.

May we continue to listen to the stories woven through Mindanao’s colors, forms, and creative expressions—and allow art to build bridges between people, places, and generations.

Padayon sa pag-Likha. Padayon sa pagsaysay sa atong mga istorya. Padayon sa pag-LikHabi.
