SUMMARY:Notes for Tomorrow Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Notes for Tomorrow\nIn collaboration with Independent Curators International (ICI)\n\n16 December 2025 to 07 March 2026\nUP Vargas Museum 1/F Galleries\nExhibition preview on 16 December 2025\, 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM\nat the UP Vargas Museum\, West Wing Gallery\n\n‘Notes for Tomorrow’ features artworks from around the world brought together in 2020 to reflect on a new global reality ushered in by the COVID-19 pandemic. Coming out of a moment where collective crisis had to be managed through collective care\, Independent Curators International (ICI) turned to 30 curators from 25 countries to consider the issues that have come to the fore in the pandemic’s aftermath\, asking each of them to share one artwork that they believe is vital to be seen today.\n\nThe UP Vargas Museum hosts the exhibition’s first iteration in Southeast Asia\, opening on 16 December 2025\, bringing together works across various geographies\, narratives\, and disciplines that stray from the colonial canon. The selected artists present works that question monumentality and seek the wisdom of localities. In this necessary moment of cultural transition\, each work acts as a source of inspiration from the recent past toward new futures. Rather than proposing a single path forward\, the artworks in Notes for Tomorrow present a network of overlapping solutions.\n\n___\n\nArtists of ‘Notes for Tomorrow’: Madiha Aijaz\, Ernesto Bautista\, Maeve Brennan\, Vajiko Chachkhiani\, Luke Luokun Cheng\, A Liberated Library for Education\, Inspiration\, and Action\, Nothando Chiwanga\, Shezad Dawood\, Demian DinéYazhi’\, Cao Guimarães\, Ilana Harris-Babou\, Rei Hayama\, Amrita Hepi\, INVASORIX\, Tamás Kaszás\, Ali Kazma\, David Lozano\, Mona Marzouk\, Joiri Minaya\, Peter Morin\, Omehen\, Daniela Ortiz\, Kristina Kay Robinson\, Luiz Roque\, Mark Salvatus\, Ibrahima Thiam\, u/n multitude\, Wayne Kaumualii Westlake\, and Yan Shi\n\nSource: UP Vargas Museum Facebook

SUMMARY:“Sustainability of the Tropical Eucheumatoid Seaweed Industry”
DESCRIPTION:The UP Marine Science Institute invites everyone to a hybrid seminar on the Philippine seaweed industry. With NAST Academician Dr. Gisela Concepcion as the Master of Ceremonies\, join us as Dr. Michael Roleda of UP MSI and Co-Founder and Vice Chairperson Rosalind Wee of W. Group Inc. discuss the current state of the country’s eucheumatoid seaweed industry.\n\nEucheumatoid seaweeds such as Kappaphycus alvarezii\, Kappaphycus striatus\, and Eucheuma denticulatum are the center of the Philippine seaweed industry. As major sources of carrageenan\, a valuable hydrocolloid that is widely used in food and household products\, these seaweeds built a multimillion-peso industry that have supported our seaweed farmers and processors for decades. Analyzing the environmental and socio-economic issues that surround it is critical to securing the industry’s sustainability.\n\n“Sustainability of the Tropical Eucheumatoid Seaweed Industry” will be held on February 9\, 2026\, 10:00 AM. As a hybrid webinar\, guests will allowed to attend at the MSI AVR or through Zoom.\n\nRegister now: bit.ly/MSISeaweedIndustry\n\nThis is a free public seminar that is co-organized by the UP Marine Science Institute\, the Algal Ecophysiology Laboratory\, and W Hydrocolloids\, Inc. Special guests from key seaweed industry players\, Fonterra and Sherratt Ingredients\, and officials from UP Diliman will also be present.\n\nFor more updates\, follow Algal Ecophysiology Laboratory.\n\nADDENDUM: Vice Chairperson Wee’s title has been updated.\n\nSource: UP Marine Science Institute Facebook
