National Artist Bencab decided to celebrate his 66th oRbiT dAy with the staff and writing fellows of the 47th U.P. National Writers' Summer Workshop which, for the past several years now, has been held in Baguio City yearly.
The UP Writers' Workshop is an intensive 10-day critiquing session for the manuscripts of mid-career writers preparing to publish new works.
Bencab's sprawling garden-cum-farm in Baguio's suburbia was the setting for the party. His personal museum of artworks is being constructed there in time for the Baguio Centennial in 2009.
Let me share with you this state of giftedness...
