Currently, there are over 9,000 pieces of local art by Filipino art groups and individuals on the website. Some of the collections that are available on the website are the historical battle of Bataan, a close look at “The Filipino Story” and “The booming street art scene: Filipino Street Art Project,” among others. This online collection features more than 100 photographs that capture soldiers in action including the arrival of General MacArthur and the famed Bataan Death March. Today, Filipinos commemorate this historical moment on Araw ng Kagitingan every April 9. Meanwhile, “The booming street art scene: Filipino Street Art Project” is an online exhibit featuring works of creative and empowered young people who are using modern art to communicate universal issues and inspire change in the streets of Manila.
