SiKLab: Sining, Kultura, at Paglaban
This April 25, let us unite in remembrance of the workers who have lost their lives, and stand in unwavering solidarity with those who continue to face inhumane and unsafe working conditions. Through the power of art and collective action, we invite everyone to SiKLab — an evening of remembrance, reckoning, and resistance.
In commemoration of the International Workers’ Memorial Day and the 10th Anniversary of the Kentex Factory Fire, this night of performances is dedicated to workers who, to this day, are denied safe workplaces, adequate protection, and dignified livelihoods.
Through art — from poetry and music to theater and visual expression — we amplify the voices of the oppressed and the abused. This night recognizes the power of culture not just as a vessel for creative expression but as a force for resistance and a call for collective change.
This gathering is a collaborative effort organized by the Institute for Occupational Health and Safety Development (IOHSAD), Concerned Artists of the Philippines, Kalinga ni San Jose Manggagawa Workers Center, LIKHA, Mayday Multimedia, Pahatid Kalatas, Tulos Baybay, and the Union of PUP Educators (UGPUP).
Venue: Polytechnic University of the Philippines – Amphitheater
Date: April 25, 2025 | Friday, 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
This event will feature progressive cultural artists, workers, youth, and long-standing groups shaping the art of liberation.
Don’t miss it — let’s ignite the night with art, culture, and resistance!
