Project Floridablanca

Color Your Life will launch its second project at Sitio Camachile, Brgy. Nabuklod, Floridablanca this October 23, 2017. Floridablanca, a 1st class municipality in Pampanga that is anchored in the agricultural economy, still have some barangays which are stricken with poverty. Specifically, Sitio Camachile, has around 700 members from the Aeta community. As such, Color Your Life selected this sitio to conduct art activities because the Team genuinely believes that the Arts can corroborate the artistic talents of the Aeta children.

Project Ormoc

Since our members planned a trip in Leyte during the first quarter of the year, the Team decided to select Ormoc City for Color Your Life’s third leg. As such, this is the first ever Color Your Life activity in the Visayas Region which will be held on November 25, 2017, Saturday.

In partnership with the Office of City Mayor Richard Gomez, “Project Ormoc,” the team will be able to facilitate its usual individual coloring and collaborative art activity. In addition to the usual program flow of the project, the team will also be preparing the following special workshops for the kids:
(1) pop-up art card making and
(2) string telephone making.

“Project Ormoc” will also become a venue to launch Color Your Life’s “BUY A KIT” project in which we encourage people to buy a start-up art kit for the price of 70 php. Sold kits will then be distributed to the children of Color Your Life’s chosen community.

Color Your Life x LIONS Club

Just when we thought we had wrapped the year up nicely with Project L.I.F.E., Color Your Life was invited to team up with an internationally renowned service club – Lions Club International for their Christmas Paraiso Gift-Giving Program on Dec. 23, 2017, at Barangay Paraiso, Roosevelt Ave., Quezon City.

Lions Club International is one of the world's largest service club organizations. They advocate volunteerism and help their volunteers deliver humanitarian services to their local communities. This is very much similar to the Color Your Life movement in which we, as much as possible, involve the locals in conducting art workshops for the children.

Color Your Life Exhibit in Erehwon Art Center

Hey guys! We just finished Project Bontoc, Color Your Life’s first-anniversary event, but we’re not yet done celebrating the feast of colors! Color Your Life is inviting you to our first art exhibition; opening is on August 30, 2018, Thursday, 3 PM at the Erehwon Center for the Arts, Erehwon Building, #1 Don Francisco St., Villa Beatriz, Old Balara, Quezon City.

“Color Your Life: A Children’s Exhibit”, one of the featured exhibits of Erehwon Fiesta 2018, will mainly showcase the artworks created by the participants of Color Your Life's anniversary project, “Project Bontoc”. Being such the first exhibit and a post-project event of Color Your Life, it will also feature photo prints of previous projects as well as mock-up installations of the art workshops that the organization has already facilitated; with the special participation of Mika Martinez Benitez, a child visual artist who uses acrylic paint as a medium.

The exhibit will encapsulate not just the team's journey as travelers but also the exploration of the children from Brgy. Mainit who then created a different artistic experience through the individual and collaborative art workshops they participated in. The whole program of Project Bontoc attempted to initiate a mutualistic symbiosis between the team and the community from the conducted art workshops, and produced an experience of communal understanding, even with unalike cultures and backgrounds, through one self’s engagement in the art creation—highlighting both the "process" and the "output".

Color Your Life x RCMD

Around the same time three years ago, we went to Tanay, Rizal for a collaborative project for the Dumagat tribe with our international friends, Mike and Joel. Still grateful up to this day especially to our talented local artists and volunteers who lent their time and effort. It wouldn’t be as successful without them. Then 2020 came, and we faced a pandemic and this froze our mobility. As much as we wanted to visit a community, we found it challenging to plan one. 

Now, Color Your Life team is proudly back! And we are going back to Tanay in consideration of the ease of restrictions in the greater Manila area. This time we are collaborating with Rotaract and Rotary Clubs of Midtown Diliman and the Alpha Phi Beta Fraternity, not only to facilitate our usual art program but to hand out as well a basic health and safety orientation to Dumagat Remontados in Sitio Macantog. See you there!
