To cap off the National Heritage Month Celebration 2023, Museo de La Salle held a lecture on the oral tradition of Mahabang Kahoy Cerca, Indang, Cavite at Zaguan, Museo de La Salle.
The lecture is related to the ongoing Cantor/a ng mga Awit ng Pasasalamat at Awit para sa Kaluluwa exhibit at the Fe Sarmiento-Panlilio Gallery.
Cantor/a is inspired by the graduate thesis of Ms. Heidi B. Sarno, a part-time faculty member from the Social Sciences and Humanities Department, that focuses on the 19 members of the Mahabang Kahoy Cerca's cantor/a community who vow to keep their tradition alive.
Cantor and Cantora are Spanish words for male and female singers. The exhibit runs until July 30, 2023.
