Parangal is a San Francisco music and dance company devoted to sharing the wealth of traditional arts of the Philippines by preserving and promoting ethnic attire, music, and dance through research, workshops, and performances. The organization serves as a bridge, inspiring and connecting Filipinos in diaspora to their roots, fostering a sense of pride and identity while educating diverse communities to spread awareness and appreciation of Philippine culture. For this special program, Parangal presents Adhika, meaning aspiration. The intricate dances were taught to the company by culture bearers from indigenous communities in the Philippines with the hope to convey their stories, living traditions and aspirations for their communities. The collaboration with YBG Festival underscores the importance of power and community through people and our shared environment.
