Two good websites on Philippine literature and culture

http://filipiniana.net/
Filipiniana.net is a full-featured digital library and a research portal that gathers the most important and significant documents and artifacts on Philippine Studies and makes them available on the Internet for free. It has one of the widest and most comprehensive collections of Filipiniana books and documents spanning the Hispanic era to the contemporary period, categorized under history, culture, religion, literature, science, economy, society, and government.

Panitikan.com.ph is an online literary project that features such diverse content as current news and events, a searchable encyclopedia of different Filipino writers, samples of literature (poetry, fiction, drama, nonfiction, children's literature, criticism, folk literature), and links to different awards, organizations, etc.

Pinoyculture will be at Kapisanan's Krismas Bazaar


Pinoyculture will be at Kapisanan's Krismas Bazaar December 3, 2011!

Karoling, handaan with the pamilya, midnight mass, paputok, exchange gift....no one does Pasko like Pinoys do Pasko. Spend some time with Pinoyculture at the Kapisanan Krismas Bazaar this Christmas season and share the warmth of the season with us.

If you miss Christmas in Pinas, if you're still wondering what presents to give your children, nieces, nephews, and inaanaks, if you're wondering how to let them experience the Christmas season as you remember it, consider giving them the present of our culture and heritage. With hundreds of children's stories to choose from—each one fully illustrated in glossy colour and presented in bilingual Filipino and English—you'll be sure to find a book for your little one in our Pinoyculture store!

This year for the first time, Pinoyculture is excited to take part in Kapisanan's Krismas Bazaar. We will set up a booth on December 3, 2011 from 1 pm to 9 pm at the Kapisanan Philippine Centre for Arts and Culture at 167 Augusta Avenue, Toronto. Join us and other Filipino Canadian entrepreneurs, businesses, and artists in this one day Christmas market event. We are excited to meet you!

If you miss Pasko the way we do Pasko, visit Pinoyculture at the Kapisanan Krismas Bazaar.
