…location/venue… Boca Raton, Florida @ a Hilton Resort

An up and coming filipino organization in the South Florida (miami, ft. lauderdale, boca raton area) requested PPAC to dance in their inaugural ball, rather similar to the Sampaguita Ball I posted earlier in this blog. T’was good times, nice room, fancy environment, food, drinks, dancing, college football picks… not so good though.

Shoot Location: Bayanihan Performing Arts Center

It has been a while since this event but that was about the time I started to construct the website…

This is the first time that this unique type of “blog category” came up so ill explain about it  a bit. I dance for a group that perform a plethora of traditional filipino dances throughout the United States. Since we do travel, it’s a no brainer to bring my camera around and shoot. So it would make sense to dedicate an entire category to the Philippine Performing Arts Company of Tampa Bay, or PPAC.

Once a year, the Philippine Cultural Foundation, Inc holds a rather fancy gala in which the Filipino community comes in with the FANCIEST AND MOST FORMAL of cultural clothing and have a big party (fully catered food, fancy décor, and open bar). Well PPAC volunteered to run the event as well as perform two pieces: Jota Manilena and Habanera. Personally I did not want to go because of a specific football game I wanted to attend but the event turned out to be more fun than I originally thought it would be.
