Kamay man ay iginapos, pinigilang magsulat ng katotohanan, pinatahimik upang hindi makapag-taas ng kamao at winatak upang hindi magbuklod-buklod…

“𝙄𝙗𝙤𝙣 𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙖𝙮 𝙡𝙖𝙮𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙪𝙢𝙞𝙥𝙖𝙙, 𝙠𝙪𝙡𝙪𝙣𝙜𝙞𝙣 𝙢𝙤 𝙖𝙩 𝙪𝙢𝙞𝙞𝙮𝙖𝙠”

…ay walang humpay pa ring nagpupumiglas at patuloy na iniinda ang pagod upang makuha ang hustisiyang dapat lamang ibigay sa ating bayan.

“𝘽𝙖𝙮𝙖𝙣 𝙥𝙖 𝙠𝙖𝙮𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙖𝙠𝙙𝙖𝙡-𝙙𝙞𝙡𝙖𝙜, 𝙖𝙣𝙜 ‘𝙙𝙞 𝙢𝙖𝙜𝙣𝙖𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙖𝙖𝙡𝙥𝙖𝙨”

Patuloy man itong ginagawa, patuloy mang dumarami ang mga kamay na tumutulong at lumalaban, at patuloy man natin inaalala ang mga nawala at mga nawawala, ay siya din ang patuloy na pagkait sa atin nang nararapat na katarungan.

“𝙋𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙨 𝙠𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙪𝙢𝙪𝙩𝙮𝙖, 𝙥𝙪𝙜𝙖𝙙 𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙪𝙝𝙖 𝙖𝙩 𝙙𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙖”

Sa kabila ng lahat ng ito, ang mga kamay na ito ay parte natin, parte ng isang Pilipino, ipagkait man. Atin nating angkinin ang lakas na taglay nito. Kamay ay ipagbuklod-buklod sa iisang hangaring, mapabuti ang lahat.

“𝘼𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙙𝙝𝙞𝙠𝙖, 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙩𝙖 𝙠𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙖𝙠𝙙𝙖𝙡 𝙡𝙖𝙮𝙖.”

𝗛𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝘀𝗮𝗻 𝗸𝗮 𝗻𝗮!? 𝗔𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗼 𝗻𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗮! 🎉🎊

UP Lente has always been a home for each member to show their love for the multimedia arts. Where we welcome creativity and passion with open arms. The organization stayed true to its roots in showcasing creative endeavors, highlighting advocacies and raising social awareness.

More than just an interest organization, UP Lente has dedicated itself not only to promote the various cultures and arts of Eastern Visayas, but also to highlight political, civic and environmental projects. Such as our cherished traditions; Yolanda Commemoration, Kahilwayan: Lente Week, Pahalipay, and Araliaw.

As we celebrate our 11th year, we not only celebrate the arts but also the bonds that have been formed throughout our stay here. We will always uphold the values that we hold dear— to be passionate, a raconteur for the arts, and to have excellence above all. We remain rooted for the love we have for the arts and for the organization. . 🎂❤️

🎉🎂 𝗢𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗻𝗮 𝘀𝗶 𝗟𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲! 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝟭𝟭 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀!🍾

Since 2014, UP Lente has been a space for artists, storytellers, and creative minds alike. Every member brings their own stories, colors, and passions, filling the space with life! Celebrating 11 years is not just about looking back, but about honoring the ever-growing family that continues to call Lente their home.

But more than a celebration, this is also a reminder of what art can do. It inspires, challenges, and brings people together. UP Lente has always stood for passion for the arts, whether it’s capturing moments, telling stories, or creating spaces where imagination and creativity thrive.

That’s why in our 11th year, we’re throwing not just any celebration, but a true Filipino birthday party—full of laughter, creativity, and connection. Because at the end of the day, the greatest gift Lente gives is the sense of belonging: a home where artists can grow, create, and celebrate together. 🏠✨

Kaya makisali na sa kasiyahan! Celebrate UP Lente's 11th year with us! 🥳🙌
