Young men and women dressed in their fabulous interpretation of Hollywood glamour fashion for the red carpet trooped to the Waterfront Insular Hotel at 6 p.m. last April 1. The special event was the 12th Art and Design Awards which is an annual tradition of the Philippine Women’s College of Davao’s Helena Z. Benitez School of Fine Arts and Design. “We are gathered here tonight to recognize the achievements of our talented students and more importantly, to inspire the students to expand their creative vision and interpret and materialize it through their creative creations,” said madam Brenda Zafra-Barba, the Program Director of Fine Arts & Interior Design Program, in her welcome remarks. Giving madam Barba their full support were Dr. Ida Patron and the well-loved and very artistic director cum professor, Emi Englis.
