Lesson 1: GAMABA Artists

Gawad Manlilikha ng Bayan (National Living Treasures Award) was

established in April 1992 through Republic Act No. 7355. The task was given to

National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) the highest policy-making

body for the culture and arts in the country.

The main objective of the award is to honor and support traditional folk artists

and to see to it that their skills and crafts are preserved. The award is tied with a

program that ensures the transfer of their skills to new generations and the

promotion of the craft both locally and internationally.In 2014, the Senate of the

Philippines adopted Senate Resolution No. (SRN) 765 aimed at recognizing the

accomplishments of the country’s living treasures.
