GAMABA

The GAMABA recognizes exceptional Filipino traditional artists who engage in communal art forms that are an integral part of cultural identity and spirituality. These traditional arts are functional objects like textiles, hats, and baskets that are produced and used in everyday life. The traditional artists face challenges from changes in their environment and production processes due to factors like mining, tourism infrastructure, and Christianization. As culture bearers, the role of GAMABA awardees is to pass on their artistic knowledge, inspire their communities, and ensure aspects of cultural identity continue.

The GAMABA and the National Artists Award, is the highest national awards for
culture and the arts.
The GAMABA recognizes exceptional artists who are engaged in the traditional
arts. With the latter, we refer to forms which are produced or performed with the
context of the community.
The traditional arts are strongly grounded in culture, spirituality while having a
high aesthetic value, are also functional and accessible in everyday settings.
The changing times continue to pose major challenges to the environment and
the traditional artist’s production process.
As culture bearers, the role of the GAMABA is to pass on their artistic knowledge
to the community, to inspire them and to ensure that aspects of their cultural
identity continue to thrive
