Hay itanum mo, ya hidiyeh aniyom.
What you have planted is what you will reap.
Dap-ay is a communal sharing of ideas practiced in the Cordilleras. It is usually held in a dap-ayan, a circular place of gathering made up of stones.
Urban Dap-ayan is an exhibition where people can experience the spirit of dap-ay in an urban setting. It is a place where people gather and share stories through music, photographs, video, spoken word and sign language. True to the spirit of dap-ay, a disability should never be deemed a hindrance in sharing one’s story with other people. Stories are meant to be shared with people; they are open and accessible to everyone. Their stories are as important as another’s story.
Urban Dap-ayan is a place where both deaf and hearing people can commune and appreciate each other’s stories. Everyone is invited to come and experience a night of sharing stories in Urban Dap-ay. No language barrier. No cultural barrier.
Just bring your own story.
