Kambayoka Artists' Resource Training System

The Kambayoka Artists’ Resource Training System (ARTS) Outreach, Incorporated,
is a non-stock, non-profit, cultural organization, registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC), Cagayan de Oro Extension Office, Philippines on
August 2, 2001 with SEC registration number H2001-00409.

When the National Commission for Culture and the Arts conducted Kinasang-an
(Cultural Workers Forum) on June 22-24, 2001 in Cagayan de Oro City, it was
dramatically observed that most of the delegations/head of the groups who
participated in the forum are alumni of the Sining Kambayoka Ensembe.  

Aside from the Forum’s formal topic were endless discussions and meetings
among the alumni and the need for unification, networking, federation and
conglomeration of the already formed groups - were words repeatedly and vibrantly
echoed, thus the name Kambayoka (ARTS) Artists’ Resource Training System
Outreach, Incorporated was given birth.

The members are mostly alumni of the MSU-Sining Kambayoka, including the
members of the created groups and other associates who have been able to attend
seminar-workshops and productions conducted by Kambayoka.

The members agreed to continue to learn and share their time, talent and treasure;
to carry out the mission of a cultural revision with the belief on the role of active
theater or cultural activities comes the development of the innate creativity that is
building one’s capability to change and create for himself and his community a new
identity – a Filipino identity.
