During the BIYAG (Benguet Indigenous Youth Arts Guild) Festival 2026, Paul Keneth Pingi Inocencio, a musician from Benguet, entrusted us with crafting his barong jacket under Hiblaโt Lahi. The barong is accented with Benguet Inabel, woven by our local weavers.
He was a judge in Benguetโs Rising Stars Acoustic Singing Competition, held at the Ben Palispis Hall, Benguet Provincial Capitol, on May 13, 2026. Fun fact: Heโs also an accomplished performer. Back in 2024, he won the World Division at the World Championships of Performing Arts in Longbeach, California, earning two golds, one silver, semi finalist medal and 2 Division champion plaques. ๐๐ป
Weโre grateful for his trust, please check out and support him on his page!
