PASSION IS PURPOSE 2

DLSU Dasmarinas, Cavite invites everyone to PASSION IS PURPOSE 2, an exhibit of outstanding abstract paintings by Bryan Ramos, a Tagaytay-based architecture student of DLSU Dasmariñas.

Opening of the exhibit will be held at the AEA Library Gallery, DLSU Dasmariñas, Cavite City on 2 May 2008 at 3 p.m. Poetry and music will be provided by Cavite Young Writers Association, Lirio Salvador of Elemento and the artist himself, Bryan Ramos.
