We are proud to announce that Kapawa Performing Arts Inc. is the official Creative Production Design Partner for Lin-ay sang Carles 2026!

As an official highlight of the Hinugyaw sa Kadagatan Festival 2026, this partnership brings a visionary, soul-stirring, and culturally rooted experience to the Municipality of Carles through visual strategy, spatial design, choreography and atmospheric storytelling.

Established as Northern Iloilo’s premiere school of performing arts, Kapawa is an SEC-registered organization and a proud partner of the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP), Iloilo Theater Festival (ILOTF) and the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) in some activities and programs and was also invited by the National Commission for Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) to observe its national activities.

Known for its dynamic and multidisciplinary approach, Kapawa has become a powerhouse in ballet, danceSport, theater, and cultural preservation in not just in Northern Iloilo, but in the whole region—training National and International medalists and travelling across the region for shows, performances and benchmarkings in different LGUs and culturally rich places across the country. KPA is also known in producing original cultural works that resonate across the Philippines and the world.

Join us as we redefine the festival experience through artistry that is both innovative and deeply traditional. This isn't just a pageant; it’s a masterpiece in motion and high caliber innovational experience.

Help us uncover the Shoreline Secrets. 🌊🎭
The tides are rising on our next big production, "Gilded Whispers: Legends of Carles Shoreline," and we want the heart of this show to come from YOU.

Every coastal town has its "old stories"—the ones told by grandmothers on rainy nights or whispered by fishermen before dawn. Whether it’s a tale of a golden ship, a guardian spirit of the mangroves, or a mysterious occurrence at Gigantes, we want to hear it.

We are looking for:
📜 Local Folklore & Myths: Stories passed down through generations.
🔱 Supernatural Encounters: Legends of the Kataw, hidden treasures, or ancient guardians.
⚓ Oral Histories: True accounts of the wonders and mysteries of the Carles coast.

If you have a story to share, or if you know a local storyteller we should talk to, please comment below or send us a private message! Your contribution could help shape the choreography and music of this cultural tribute.

Help us keep our heritage alive. Let the whispers be heard.🎭

ISA, DUWA, KITA (Full Show)

On an ordinary day that quietly bends into the unknown, two boys follow a drifting thread into a space alive with rhythm and unseen belonging. There, movement speaks what words cannot, and something within them begins to awaken. Yet time slips, memory fractures, and certainty dissolves upon return. What remains is not proof, but a pulse carried forward-where dreams take root in silence, and the future, though unseen, has already begun to dance within them.
