Magkasama
Magkasama is our main fall quarter event, and is a traditional event under ASUCSD. Meaning “Coming Together”, its original purpose was for Pilipin@-American students and allies from all over California to come together to learn and share their experiences in Pilipin@ and Pilipin@-American history, culture and the arts. Magkasama started in the 1998-1999 academic school year, and was originally entitled Pilipino History and Arts Celebration (PHAC). The program encompassed an exhibition of contemporary Pilipin@-American art, stage performers, vendors, and workshops on political and social issues in the Filipin@-American community. In 2009, Magkasama was transformed into a benefit showcase, in which we invite different up-and-coming artists to come together and showcase their talent in celebration of Asian-American history and art. The proceeds of the showcase will go to a community organization that best fits the mission of Kaibigang Pilipin@.

Come hang out with us and do some storytelling!

Christina Newhard, a friend of Invisible Storybook has been working for years to launch Sari-Sari Storybooks, a Filipino indie publishing venture.

Sari-SariStorybooks support Filipino culture and language revitalization. We do this with beautiful, multilingual picture books that capture the quirky magic of Filipino storytelling.

We've just launched a Kickstarter campaign to fundraise printing costs for "Kalipay and the Tiniest Tiktik," and "Amina and the City of Flowers."

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1438429130/modern-filipino-childrens-stories-sari-sari-storyb

Would you consider donating to the project, and sharing this with others? Donations and shares made in the first 24 hours help immensely by creating momentum on Kickstarter, so please donate and share today, if you can.

These gorgeously illustrated picture books bring Filipino stories to the world. Printed + media-rich digital books.
