Be Inspired at the Art Karnival in SM North Edsa Skygarden

“The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls” -Pablo Picasso



 

yours truly at the Art Karnival grand opening last April 21


Art is seen in almost everywhere that we go. It’s in our innate ability to appreciate art when it catches our fancy. Good thing that SM Malls took the initiative to heighten the senses of mall going Filipinos by promoting art that we can all appreciate in our daily hustle and bustle even if we are just passing through SM’s largest mall which is SM City North Edsa where summer is more creative with the ongoing ART KARNIVAL.




If you happen to pass by at the Skygarden of SM North Edsa better take a good look around and you’ll be surprise to see interesting works of art.

These experienced hands find themselves falling behind in a market demanding higher production, clinging to familiar yet often inefficient methods passed down through generations. One farmer from Pampanga, Jayson Garcia, sought to disrupt this prevailing narrative in his family. He knew that he had to chart a new course forward for his farm and innovate to remain competitive within the rapidly evolving landscape of modern agriculture. “Noon, mahirap ang magtanim,” he recalled their life before joining SM Foundation’s Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan. “Para bang tsambahan, basta pag itinanim mo ‘yan, hintayin mo na lang mamunga.
