ABSTRACT
Ilocos Sur has a rich heritage and unique culture that are to be preserved for the next generations
because it is observed that many of these traditions, songs, dances, and other Ilocano cultures are
not familiar to the younger generations already. Thus, the provincial government of Ilocos Sur
conceived a festival that will highlight these cultures and traditions and attract local and foreign
tourists as well, and the Kannawidan Ilocos Festival is a commemoration anniversary of Ilocos
Sur. Traditional preserving artifacts and culture are too antiquated or old-fashioned. For this
problem, digital technology can provide one solution to improve the situation by utilization of
digital data. A virtual environment system within a real museum can offer several advantages,
which are discussed in this paper: (1) Overcoming the lack of exhibition space (2) Responding to
the need for interaction with individual exhibits (3) Affording easy transfer of exhibitions to
remote sites This paper also presents an approach towards designing and developing virtual reality.
The digitization processes, architectural design, and exhibit presentation are outlined, and points
of particular importance are explained. Exhibits from real-world museums have been digitized and
integrated into this virtual experience. A combination of digital technology in the way of
innovating the idea of preserving the artifacts and crafts. With this, the province aims to sustain its
branding under the UNESCO – Creatives Cities Network (UCCN) to grow the city's cultural
tourism, providing more opportunities and venues for the city's local artists craftsmen. The
proposal was guided by a sustainability, experiential, and practical approach to maximizing the
user's experience through the different activities, facilities, features, and characteristics
incorporated into the project.

INTRODUCTION
he museum is a temple where art and knowledge are most important. It has a balance
between devotion to art. Three primary tasks of a museum: Education, presentation, forming of
collection. Nowadays, the public would not go to a museum in the first instance to acquire
knowledge or information. Museum space follows function, and its interior space should respond
to and go well with its exhibitions.

The Cultural and Creative Arts (CCA) is an integration of Music, Arts, Drama, and Dance in
which a student is expected to grow into and with the cultural heritage of its people. Art is a
manifestation of human response to the environment, which continuously affects society. The role
of an artist has been changed in each decade and is continually redefining its criteria. It is the fact
that art cannot be confined to some boundaries, and it continues to move steadily to develop form
and idea. Art history is partly a history of technological advances. Oil painting, lithography,
photography, acrylics, and countless other technical advances mark a turning point.

Ilocos Sur is a province in the Philippines located in the Ilocos Region in Luzon. Its capital is
the city of Vigan, situated on the mouth of the Mestizo River. Officially the Municipality of Bantay
is a third-class municipality in the province of Ilocos Sur, Philippines. (See Context and Locale,
p. 12) Bantay with the notion and expectation that the Sacred Shrine and the Virgin's miraculous
image will remain in place forever. So that the town was called "Bantay" meaning "Guard"
(Around Ilocandia Channel, 2014).

o ensure the viability of the proposed creative arts and cultural digital museum, the city
government of the Province of Bantay had conducted a Project Feasibility Study (See Appendix
H, CDP-IS Feasibility Study, p. 92). The feasibility study comprised of site assessment, demand-
supply analysis, facility recommendations, and financial projections. The city's primary
considerations are the deterrents with regards to appropriately designed event venues. The
feasibility study recommended facilities to be incorporated into the proposed creative arts and
cultural digital museum. These facilities include exhibition areas, adequate parking spaces,
commercial spaces, and other support facilities such as accommodation rooms and communal
areas. Further recommendations for the proposed creative arts and cultural digital museum include
providing the proposed project's quality design and flexible spaces and facilities to accommodate
various user groups and social events.

The museum's understanding of their role had lifted over the years. The traditional notion of a
museum was the center of scholarship and curatorial expertise. However, it was moved toward a
more explicitly public-oriented role over time, helping people, learning the society, culture,
history, science, and providing entertainment (Travers, 2016). The definition of excellence in
museums reflects a strong orientation towards a social role. It describes excellence in the quality
of experience and public benefits gained from engagement, both cultural and social, as well as an
institution of being innovative, risk-taking, and international in outlook (Smithies, 2011).
According to the Chicago Architecture Center (2019), many arts and crafts buildings usually have
these traits: structural authenticity, simplicity, natural materials, natural influences, a hand of the
artists (embracing imperfections), and emphasis on home life.

In the year 2018, the craft industry plays a critical role in generating income and jobs. It was
recognized as a tool for poverty reduction worldwide. Artisans are unable to complete a very well-
organized industrial unit to sell their products at reasonable prices. Several traditional crafting
skills and techniques disappear because new generations are not interested in learning the tradition.
Subsequently, the handicrafts faded away and lost their place in society, while industrial products
flourished, with their new technology, superiority in the durability of the material in more
economic value. With globalization and rapid economic change, this heritage needs to be identified
and protected, or it may disappear forever (Yang, et. Al., 2018).

The digital museum uses digital technologies in all its activities through data triangulation of
observation and survey techniques. The use of immersive media in the arts has transformed the
spectator from observer to user, changing the experience's essence. From visual and sound art to
performance and gaming, the boundaries of what is possible for creation, curating, production, and
distribution are continually extending. Interactive Experience in the Digital Age explores diverse
ways of creating and evaluating interactive digital art through the eyes of the practitioners who are
embedding evaluation in their creative process as a way of revealing and enhancing their practice.
(Candy & Ferguson, 2014).

Republic Act No. 8492 (1998), A National Museum Act creating a permanent home and other
museum functions, Section 1. Short Title Section 2 of the "National Museum Act of 1998" can be
recognized as this Act. Policy Statement, The State's policy is to promote and promote the cultural
development of the Filipino people through the preservation, enrichment, and dynamic evolution
of the Filipino national culture, based on the principle of unity in diversity in a climate of free
4
artistic and intellectual expression (National Museum, 1998). Besides local history, cultural
heritage is also a concern in the Philippines, where culture changes from one place to another.
Cultural heritage was given importance through Republic Act 9470, National Archives of the
Philippines Act of 2007, State policy for preserving, promoting, and popularizing its wealth in
historical and cultural heritage. The State follows a policy between Filipino countries' cultural and
resources, including the documentary records of Filipino culture, history, and governance
(National Commission for Culture and the Arts, 2012 - Article I, Section 2).

The National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), a government institution, is the
overall policy-making body, coordinating and grants agency to preserve, develop, and promote
Philippine arts and culture. NCCA is thus responsible for the culture and the arts in the Philippines.
Through Executive Order No. 80, the coordination among the cultural agencies was strengthened,
which placed the Cultural Center of the Philippines, the National Historical Commission of the
Philippines, the National Museum, and the Philippines' National Archives under the NCCA
umbrella. Through R.A. 9155, the Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino was included in the mentioned
five agencies (National Commission for Culture and the Arts, NCAA,2012). It shows that the
Philippines' culture and heritage are given appropriate attention (National Commission for Culture
and the Arts, 2012).

The museum is offered to the intended audience as a “Digital Media as a Service.” The visitor
will “walk” through the virtual museum as if it were a brick-and-mortar structure and go from
room to room (exhibit to exhibit). Each exhibit will have a set of interactive visuals (illustrations,
images, and animations) and audio commentary for one to select and view, ranging from basic
concepts and scientific information to cutting-edge technology behind renewable energy.

According to Perkins Arenstein (2014), museums seek to improve the record on


sustainability; conservators worldwide are grappling with reevaluating environmental control
guidelines and other elements of the exhibit and storage environment. (see Appendix E, LEED -
Guidelines for Arts & Cultural Museum Table 20, 73). Museums are a challenging building type
with diverse programming, from preserving and displaying collections to providing and
maintaining visitor facilities, each with its climatic requirements the complexities involved in
building or renovating a museum, combined with undertaking a sustainable design certification
effort, can be daunting for someone unfamiliar with the process. To ensure that preservation
5
concerns are integrated into the design, conservators must understand the process and be a valuable
part of it (Arenstein & Schiamberg, 2014).

Museums are traditionally large energy users because of the need to provide tight humidity
control. It will design various published environmental criteria for museums and those from major
museums across the country. When it comes to museum galleries, nothing is more important than
ensuring the valuable objects inside. One of the most critical aspects of safeguarding special
collections' dignity is the indoor air quality of the Heating, Ventilation & Airconditioning (HVAC)
system. Striking a careful balance between performance expectations, ambient weather conditions,
and proper HVAC design will ensure that museum air quality meets the curated collections'
requirements in each gallery. (see Appendix E, Table 24, p. 77)

However, traditional crafts' intangible cultural heritage is different from built heritage because
techniques and abilities cannot be dealt with or touched with other means or without them being
used. It is difficult to explain in real life because of Intangible Cultural Heritage's untouchable
function, which is one of the significant challenges in preventing it from disappearing (Yang et al.,
2018).
For the digitization of 2D exhibits, high-quality photographs were used. The digitization of 3D
exhibits involved three approaches: 3D photography, 3D scanning, or 3D modeling. Each approach
has advantages and disadvantages, and the selection of the most appropriate approach, in each
case, depended on the exhibit and the requirements set for its presentation.

In 2019, According to Anna Faherty (2019), Museums changed lifestyle, education,


entertainment, and inspiration. It provides spaces for social interaction and reflection and makes
valuable contributions to the local communities. Some require active involvement by audiences;
some play an active role in favor of social change. It is a matter of museums on the planet.
Nevertheless, the importance of visiting a museum is not always evident is not frequent museum-
goers. It can be a time-consuming process to establish a value proposition, which might challenge
the very essence of what the Museum stands for. This paper has studied and highlighted many of
the issues facing traditional crafts. Thus, it is necessary and justifies paying attention in terms of
significant policy initiatives to improve developing nations and preserve built heritage (Faherty,
2019).

Analyze the challenge and limitation of digitization for providing the best viewing experience
is a crucial step in the development of digital curation (Douglas, 2011). In implementing a digital
Museum, the relationship between people and collections is more important than the compilation
itself. Therefore, to digitize collections and the problems being faced, this section will discuss the
current development of the user experience in the Museum, offering a chance to review the groups
of interest to them after they finished the on-site visit (Wilkinson, 2011)

Cardoza (2019) The technology discusses how the digitally applied Jehova’s Witness Library
(JW Library) did not change the ethical frameworks underpinning Jehovah's Witnesses' "life of a
spiritual life." Using the JW Library's digital perspective that transformed the Watch Tower
Community history, some suggest that modern applied technology works to shape itself as an
ethical topic. It also creates participants. In terms of both (digital) materiality and mobility-reshape
elements of the proper project, the technological aim is to continue to attain truth and be placed in
the kingdom of God. (Cardoza, 2019).

It is taking time to build and agree that a value proposition has a range of advantages. The
method forces companies to answer challenging issues and engage in complex discussions from
an internal perspective. To develop connections with new audiences, it might surface simmering
tensions and trigger conversations about ways on how the museum needs to improve.
Concentration should be on the same objectives by the end of the process(Esa, 2020). The most
innovative marketing initiatives can struggle to resonate with their intended audiences without a
value proposition. An institution should go beyond communicating its offer to reconsider things
that it is taken for granted with the value proposal, such as opening hours, ticket sales,
programming of events, online content, on-site facilities, and policies.

The modernization of the museum, the three priorities are the Integrate nature and culture is
an overarching plan to modernize the Museum's function, not just the displays. Nature and nurture
represent one coin, not two sides (Schander & Pittman, 2011). Describe that new technology can
encompass a range of technologies, from robotics to biotechnology, which influences the arts in
recent years. It's determined thru consultation with the reporting review panel that the research
should focus on emerging technology since they have had the most significant effect on both the
arts and the public by far. In materials sent to artists and founders of the arts, the digital approach
is described as technologies that enable the production and storing of data and information in
digital form, with the potential of dissemination over electronic networks. This concept is
7
convenient, but some artists and educators have stressed that it is more difficult today to describe
emerging technology in a manner that avoids structures (Poole, 2011). recommendations, this
research pays specific attention to the impact of digital systems on the arts. Through the digital
application, customers easily distinguish the position mark that is shown on mobile. Such that the
paths could be handled easily. Museum-goers more likely anyone to stop by and see paintings and
other part of exhibits but more strongly attracted by exits. The museum should be designed to
neglect tourists' right-turning bias or the enormous attracting force of leaves, present persuasively.
Providing a redundant wayfinding cues some will prefer for directions; some prefer to get it on
their own. The circulation patterns for people to form a cognitive map are with digital app given
to visitor. To support the circulation and spaces thus this paper provides a solution based on
guidelines to have more compatibility for the design. (See Appendix E. Digital Signage
Guidelines, Table 23, p. 76)

Moreover, In order to have versatile and accessible environments to accommodate various


occasions and the varying number of participants or delegates, the activities and services that
usually occur during events have also been taken into account. Legal aspects were the basis for the
minimum standards of legal requirements, such as the national building code, the law on
accessibility, the fire code and local ordinances. In order to evaluate the current features of the site
that could influence the planning and design of the proposed project, on-site eye observations were
also carried out. All the information collected was structured following its particular goals, and the
stated method served as a guide to finding a viable solution for the proposed development.

Digital signage should be taken into account to establish secure purposes, like alert signs. For
space where placing, Conventional placard can be too huge, and it accommodates an area. A
revolutionary concept of technology features is that digital signage enables an individual to explore
how digital can be used in your store to inform, entertain, educate, and interact with customers.
Because of its purpose, this could be fitted to the development that only submits messages about
emergencies, closures or essential public safety concerns directly to the authorized Director or
Public Safety and Police Services. Signage is a perfect way to engage with individuals. The best
way to communicate data with people has long been traditional printed signs; recently, however,
modern digital signage displays have emerged as a new signage solution. (See Appendix E-4.
Museum Air Quality, Table 24, p. 77)

Many have argued that a museum visit is mainly a social experience (MLA, 2017). The social
facilitation method argued from this viewpoint, that individuals go to museums and zoos to be
with family and friends. Consequently, to promote such social interaction, exhibits should be
planned. An additional reason for the approach to social facilitation is that within this social
context, significant learning will occur better. Social facilitation reasoning can be summed up as
follows: (1) For most tourists, social aims are important, and people usually visit in groups. (2)
Group members, during their visit, affect each other. It is possible to construct exhibits to
encourage social interaction. When young children are part of the visiting group, social contact is
highly important. (See Appendix A. Culture and Facilities based from the arts and culture
practices, Table 7, p. 40)

Digital technologies open up new insights, but also assumptions, on how visitors will
communicate and interact with museums. As art constantly explores and plays with new ways, this
is also the case for museums. The purpose of proposed museums is to store (and preserve) artifacts
thru digital. However, museums must also be organizations (locations) that are engaged in the
development and processing of information and new knowledge, and are therefore of continuous
significance.

The concept of building materials glorifies the endurance and visual aspects of design.
Materials not only provide meaning but also enhance the quality of building – venustas (beauty)
and fermitas (structure). This element takes a look at the reasons that make building materials help
to: establish a relationship between visual quality and structural stability, provide character and
visual appeal to the building, decipher time and era of construction of a building, trace the evolution
of the art of construction, mix aesthetic elements with practicality (Mishra and Das, 2018).

First, therefore no boundaries are separating the interactive artworks from the other works.
Some stretch beyond rooms and corridors for installation, some overlap with other books and some
even fuse with other items. Because there are no boundaries, the immersive results hold the edges
in a state of continuous flux between individuals. Visitors join the creations physically and explore
them as well as witness interactions with other visitors. The effect is a different kind of digital art
experience that is immersive and cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Besides optimizing
the venue's usage, it also allows several facilities inside a facility and provides the audience with
optimal viewing. Second, versatile wall structures are integrated, especially where functional space
demarcation is a vital partition project. Demountable and movable partitions are applicable in areas
9
susceptible to future partition rearrangement. Due to their flexibility and cost-effectiveness, they
allow large rooms to be subdivided conveniently to maximize space utilization and enable separate
areas to be used without disturbance from each other. At present, culture and arts museum need
much flexible and customizable space for less than a hundred to thousands of attendees. (see
Appendix E Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design “LEED” Guidelines, Table 20, pp.
73) Contiguous space is critical for many event planners, especially those with large groups.
Spaces can be spread out among a few adjoining rooms or halls, but it should be in an area that
can be combined with what event planners might consider one single space. Flexible event venues
are one of the prime considerations of meeting planners for successfully implementing various
events. Flexible event venues are one of the exceptional reviews of meeting planners for
successfully implementing multiple events. This has inspired cities around the world to improve
their attractiveness as possible conference hosts or destinations. (Crouch, Del Chiappa, and Perdue,
2019).

The proposed facility has a robust civic role that could offer the local community significant
benefits. The proposed facility would accommodate a wide range of entertainment, concert, trade
and market shows, and other activities and events requiring a broad floor area, in compliance with
the objectives of the City. In addition, the facility should be designed to current specifications. A
tremendous amount of versatility in terms of growth capacity is provided by the large scale of the
subject site. Site Consideration and access in the proposed site has strong access provisions for
the local area and region. The National highway intersection of Tay-ac – Bahet Bypass Road
provides excellent north-south access. Tay-ac Bantay Bypass road adjacent neighbor has
undergone development will soon be improved as the proposed facility undergoes construction
and to provide good arterial access to the site and provide on-site parking due to its area.

The paradigm of the study (See Appendix B, Table 10, p. 48) presents the input, process, and
output of this study. The first variable determines the spaces and facilities needed to address the
different activities and programs of creative arts and cultural digital museums. Another variable is
identifying applicable architectural concepts that can be applied in the design of the proposed
project in terms of functional planning and conceptual massing. To establish a feasible solution
for the report also considered construction and legal aspects. Construction elements inform the
planning and design of spaces inside the built environment. The Comprehensive Development
Plan – Bantay, Ilocos Sur (CDP-BI) Project Feasibility Report conducted by the city council in
10
2017 and other similar case studies and design and planning recommendations are the primary
basis of the space specifications for the creative arts and cultural digital museum.

For the design, construction, and operation of a facility, an especially important interface
between the indoor and outdoor environments is that of the building envelope. Because of the
varied and sometimes competing functions associated with the building envelope, an integrated,
synergistic approach considering all phases of the facility life cycle is warranted. This
"sustainable" approach supports an increased commitment to environmental stewardship and
conservation and results in an optimal balance of cost, environmental, societal, and human benefits
while meeting the mission and function of the intended facility (Bolin, 2016).

Furthermore, the study only presents architectural solutions through architectural space
programming, interrelationship diagrams, and conceptual massing. However, the course does not
include the detailed return investment and estimation of the construction cost and construction
methods. Conceptual Framework
Museums in the Philippines have three forms of the exhibit: permanent, temporary, and mobile
show using info visualization (INFOS), 2D, 3D, colors and form, controlling movement
characteristics, and communicating with the visitors marking panels InfoVis (Kamaruddin, 2019).
In general, data visualizations may help explore and interpret the data for discovery or express
current observations, information, or arguments (Munzner, 2014).

Moreover, visualizations are eminent in storytelling (Segel & Heer, 2010; Kosara &
Mackinlay, 2013; Lee et al., 2015) and significantly can also use visualization of cultural data can
also be used for presentation and display, which may be static and interactive. This form of
‘storytelling’ can be used to communicate and argue a point of view, and curate paths and
sequences that can be employed to present a narrative of a collection (Davis et al., 2016)
Significance of the Study

The significance of the study varies from different related aspects. These include impacts on the
interactive process and the quality of interaction that could likely achieve through this design. This
study tends to thrive the efficiency in museum facilities, further and improve the museum through
digital technology, and this study shall identify the aspects of museum facility design that have the
most significant potential to impact more conducive learning. This study's findings have
implications for and practice regarding the planning, sustainability, and design of museum facility
construction.

Objectives of the study

This research's main objective is to develop the Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum for
Bantay, Ilocos Sur. It will highlight the city's history, culture, arts and crafts, and architecture
creation to fit the province's arts and crafts museum with an immersive multimedia display, which
supports the following purposes:
1. To identify the character of a creative arts and cultural digital museum.

2. To determine an appealing environment for the community in designing a creative arts and
cultural digital museum, particularly.

2.1. Suitable facilities,


2.2. Accessible, and
2.3. Aesthetic Museum
2.4. Modern theme

3. To design a creative arts and cultural digital museum.

METHODOLOGY
Study Design
The descriptive research method was used in this study to present, analyze, and interpret
data. This research method was adopted due to its purposive process of gathering, analyzing, and
classifying data about the existing condition, practices, trends, and cause and effect relationships,
making an adequate and accurate interpretation of such data. The observed variables during on-
site ocular observations were the primary data for the study. However, consultations from the
concerned government officials were done to have more transparent and precise information
regarding the study.

Context and Locale


Bantay, officially the Municipality of Bantay, is a third-class municipality in Ilocos Sur,
Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 47, 246 people. (Census of
Population 2020, Region I, Ilocos Region). It is located just north-east of Vigan, the provincial
capital of Vigan. Bantay is 137 kilometers (85 mi) north of San Fernando City, La Union, the
12
Regional Capital of Ilocos Region, 406 kilometers (252 mi) from Metro Manila, and 1 kilometer
(0.62 mi) from Vigan City, the provincial capital. Tay-ac is situated at approximately 17.5989,
120.4711, in the island of Luzon. Elevation at these coordinates is estimated at 233.2 meters or
765.1 feet above mean sea level.
As presented in Figure 1, the site has a total area of 39, 541 square meters located explicitly
in Barangay Tay-ac, Bantay, Ilocos Sur. The proposed site is situated in the Eastern tip of the city,
primarily residential with a mix of commercial, light industrial, and recreational uses. The subject
site is zoned institutional since it is government property. This zone permits a variety of
commercial and commercial-compatible uses.

Data Gathering Tools


The study includes data utilization of various tools to obtain the needed data for the study. The
primary data gathering tool in this study was a researcher-made observation guide. This study used
tools such as an authorization letter (see Appendix E - Letter to Conduct Study, Pg. 76) for
observation was necessary to ensure that there is no ethical violation. Observation guidelines (see
Appendix E - Observation Guide Pg. 64) were also utilized, including on-site documentation. A
request letter was also given to the City Planning and Development Office (CPD-BI) (see
Appendix – G – Legal Documents, p. 88) before the procurement of necessary documents such as
the lot title, lot plan, and a copy of the Comprehensive Development Plan of Bantay, Ilocos Sur
(CDP-BI). Project Feasibility Study, Electronic and library research also used to collect relevant
data for the study. (see Appendix G, Tax Declaration, Lot Title, p. 88 -89)

Data Gathering Procedures

The Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum design solution used the data taken from
the review of related literature. Furthermore, pieces of information collected through observation
13
regarding the current conditions of the existing site. Request letters were essential to the data
gathering procedure. The letters were addressed to various government offices, specifically to the
Department of Tourism, Municipal Tourism Office, and the Mayor's office in Bantay, Ilocos Sur.
In addition, the request letters were used to obtain necessary information about the site, tax
declaration, comprehensive land-use plan, and zoning and land use map of the municipality.

Data gathered for the identified activities and facilities derived from architectural references
and documents such as considering space standards and similar projects, books, journals, and the
worldwide web. After valid instruments, the researcher conducted a personal visit to the proposed
project site, existing museums, and convention center in Bantay, Ilocos Sur. Guided observation
and support are for the checklists' validity that photos were provided showing the site's actual visit.
The lists were then analyzed and reviewed.

Treatment of the Data

All data and information to support the proposed creative arts and cultural digital museum
were analyzed, organized, and interpreted. The use of analysis, literature review and other relevant
documents was considered to further develop the design and recommendations to enhance the
city's creative industry's potential growth. The study helps to determine which innovative design
trends apply to the project.

Ethical Consideration
The research ethics considered the confidentiality of all information gathered from
different sources during the study's observation and investigation phase. All collected data will use
for academic purposes only. All rightful authors and owners from journals, books, articles, and
other sources were properly cited/quoted.
Data collection included an interview guide, an observation guide, and a review of related
literature. The triangulation of data through those three processes gives a better understanding of
how to approach the study objectives correctly.

This objective serves as the primary support for a study that would identify the facilities and
programs needed to conserve and promote the industry. For the first (1) objective, an observation
guide (refer to Appendix H, Observation Tool, p. 67) includes lists that would help identify the
different features and characteristics of the facilities integrated into the design. The second (2)
objective also involves an observation guide (refer to Observation Tool, Appendix H, p. 67), which
14
helped identify possible allocation of spaces, building orientation, functional building materials,
and architectural design approaches that were used to reflect the character of the province of Ilocos
Sur. Lastly, for the third objective, a checklist was used as a basis that consists of different criteria
(refer to Observation Guide, Appendix H, p. 67) in determining the different factors that could
affect the planning and design of the study.

Moreover, laws and provisions, guidelines, and international architectural references were
considered to support the development of the project. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

For the architectural character of the creative arts and digital museum broad range of
building materials is available. Since the province of Ilocos Sur has no materials to portray its
locality, the objective is to select suitable materials to reflect the museum's characteristics.

Figure 2. Abel Iloco (Pasakan)


Weaving in the Philippines is a form of art for the native Filipinos and a part of life that
may trace back to before the Spanish colonization. Weaving is defined as an eminent textile
production method in which two typical sets of yarns or filaments are interweaved at right angles
to construct a fabric or cloth. This is a process of intertwining the vertical yarn (warp) and the
horizontal yarn (weft), respectively known as gan-ay and pasakan in the Ilocos province. The
application of this material in the design is through the use of perforated façade panels that also
served as a building skin and exterior sun shading (See Figure 2).

Figure 3. Clay Pottery & Bricks (Burnay)

Pagburnayan, comes from the root word burnay. It refers to the hand-crafted earthenware pots
made from Vigan. Bantog clays these are called. The locals use clay as a construction material,
most commonly baked into brick or roof tiles. The relative ease with which clay can be extracted
from the ground and processed by adding water to change its shape, increasing its strength by
adding straw, sand, etc., means that it can be considered sustainable.

In addition, it provides relatively good thermal insulation and thermal mass. It has good robustness,
stability, and durability. It is fire-resistant and capable of withstanding seismic activity, giving it a
potential lifespan of 100 years or more.

Figure 4. Banaoang Bridge

Banaoang bridge majestically connects and separates two transcending mountains and
widely praised because of its marvelous engineering and grand architectural design as glorified by
its splendid panoramic beauty, strength, and durability when it survived the bombings of World
War II."(Sebastian, 2012) But metal goes beyond aesthetics. It has several qualities that function
as a good building material, such as economical, sustainable, versatile, new, or retrofit, and has
many diverse choices (Metal Construction Association, 2018). This material's objective in the
16
building design is to showcase its capacity as an architectural element, influenced by how the
locals of Ilocos Sur have the iconic bridge to be a part of attraction on the tourist.

In addition, material held in these repositories has been used and merged to create various
thematic interactive live exhibits (Devine, 2019). These exhibits, particularly in cultural
institutions such as museums, are important complementary counterparts to physical exhibitions.
Well-built virtual experience can provide the "real thing" with alternate experiences and open up
other possibilities that include education and learning, more content beyond physical exhibits,
promoting active engagement and visitor participation through forums and uploads, online
shopping, etc.

Digital technologies would be useful for advancing both functions of the museum. As for
the primary process, the digital archive is the most effective method. Whatever the condition of
collection preservation in museums is good, the collection will undoubtedly deteriorate with time.
The only way to preserve the current collections' current conditions is to measure inaccurate
utilizing various scanners and sensors and record and store the measurement data in digital formats.
With digital technologies, we can make perfect copies of these data efficiently. First of all, this is
the only realistic way to document and maintain existing museum collections without
deterioration. Second, it offers a mechanism for addressing the well-known contradiction between
preservation and exhibition by using the data contained in digital archives. The idea of the digital
museum was born. Gathered all materials will be converted into digital data, stored electronically,
and used for public education or academic study.

The interactive artworks have no borders separating them from the other works. Some
overlap with other books, and some even fuse with other pieces. Since there are no boundaries, the
immersive results keep the boundaries between people in a state of continuous flux. Visitors
physically enter and explore the creations as well as experience interactions with other visitors.
The result is a new kind of interactive digital art experience that cannot find anywhere else in the
world.

The facilities based on arts and cultural practices are discussed. These facilities were
categorized and analyzed to properly select the proposed creative arts and cultural digital museum
spaces. The validity of these functional spaces considers the metropolitan and indigenous arts and
crafts of Ilocos Sur, international guidelines and case studies of a different museum, existing local
facilities concerning the study such as museums, exhibition areas, virtual reality rooms.

Design Brief
The main objective of the study is to come up with an architectural design for the cultural and
creative arts center of Baguio, and it aims to introduce functional facilities, applicable building
materials and architectural approaches for the building design. Moreover, this section also explains
the architectural design solution incorporated in the project proposal.

Furthermore, the proposed project aims to attract a significant number of people. It will
also affect the number of parking slots to accommodate its future users during large-scale events.
A multi-level parking facility is considered for this study to address the needed parking slots
without compromising the users' convenience. As presented in the table below, the architectural
design brief shows the summary of the data gathered from various case studies, related literature,
and other relevant articles in line with the specific objectives. The data collected were analyzed
and synthesized to develop a solution for the proposed Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum.

Design for the Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum


The gathered data from the previous objectives are substantial to develop a viable
architectural solution for the proposed Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum design and plan.
To reflect the arts and culture identity of Ilocos Sur, an architectural approach must be considered
to shape a project as a whole. According to Focus (2019), There are three common design
approaches in architecture: sustainable approach, experiential approach, and the practical
approach. The considerations in applying these approaches were based on the seven principles of
designing a cultural arts center (Government of Western Australia; Department of Culture and the
Arts, 2018) shown in Table 3.

24
In relevance to the study, the sustainable approach involves designing buildings to
minimize the negative environmental impact. This can include anything from incorporating
sustainable energy use to building placement (Focus, 2019). Passive cooling under this approach
was considered to minimize energy consumption and operational cost. According to Haggag and
Elmasry (2011), the use of passive cooling techniques including natural ventilation, thermal mass,
shading devices, and responsive landscaping have been adopted in significant projects to maintain
the vision of one location towards building sustainability.

The use of the experiential approach has also been adopted in the planning and design of
the cultural and creative arts centers. This approach to architectural design is extremely immersive
(Focus, 2019). The experiential approach takes into consideration the end user's experience. In this
design strategy, a building is designed as an experience, and it incorporates every impression that
a visitor will have on the building - creating a fully immersive experience. The most effective way
to map out the experience of the end-users is through a narrative design approach (Roca gallery,
2019).

Exploring what the people will see, touch, feel, smell, and hear over their stay. Essentially,
the experiential design prioritizes human interaction with a built environment (Terramai, 2020).
This approach looks at how people interact with space and creates the environment not only for
human needs but also for human experience. According to Terramai (2020), the experiential design
focuses more on human-centric design, branding, and interactivity are all vital sections of that
puzzle. The more connected someone feels to space, the more they will want to come back to that
space.

The application of the experiential approach in the building design is experienced through
the different facilities and activities incorporated in the project proposal. The project includes
facilities such as a museum, cultural activities, and first-hand experiences of making different
creative arts products of the city. This also consists of the architectural features and characteristics
that will showcase and reflect Ilocos sur identity.

The most cost-efficient architectural method is the practical approach (Focus, 2019). This
strategy involves the application of materials, efficiency of design, and overall purist strategy.
Discussed in Table 3 are the six practical guidelines from KMB Design Group (2018) that can be
utilized in building design that can help reduce operating costs and carbon footprints as well as
increase building resiliency. (see Appendix E-5 HVAC Design Guidelines, Table 1-3, Pp. 75-77)
25
Site Analysis
The lot is irregularly shaped and relatively flat with a total lot area of 38, 531 square meters.
The main challenge of the site was its dimensions. 7639.59 m, which also happens to be the
frontage of the site. The site is oriented with the orientation facing east and the rear-facing west.
Longer sides are oriented north and south; hence, exposure to prevailing winds is maximized (refer
to Appendix C, Site Analysis, p. 54) Due to the site's shape and orientation, the building's form
and direction were also affected. The climatic data of Tay-ac, Bantay (See Appendix C, Figures 2
to 9, p. 58 – 65) influenced the massing conceptualization of the building to take advantage of the
prevailing weather pattern and other natural phenomena which may affect the indoor and outdoor
environment of the proposed project. Due to the current site condition, integrating an adaptive
building envelope allows the proposed building to adapt to the site's varying weather conditions.
In this case, perforated metal sheets on the southern and western façade reduce direct sunlight's
entry during the summer season and protect the building during the wet season. (See table 5).

Architectural Design Concepts Applicable to the Creative Arts and Cultural Digital
Museum
A concept is an idea, thought, or notion that forms the backbone and foundation of a design
project. It is the driving force for the project's progress and is consistently consulted throughout
every stage of its development. An architectural concept is the meaning and reason for the
completed building or structure and is the very first part of the design process to be developed and
realized (“How to Develop Architectural Concepts,” n.d.). Several architectural concepts can be
applied in the planning and design of the proposed creative arts and cultural digital museum as
presented in Table 6.

Space Articulation - Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum enhances flexibility and
adjacency of spaces. The groupings of the spaces are according to their respective
functions. The use of retractable walls as dividers ensures the flexibility of adjacent rooms
in the design.

Geometry. Balance and symmetry are significant characteristics of the building massing.
In addition, the form of the building reflects the "Bahay na Bato.," which symbolizes the
Philippines' architecture and firm and elegant.

Response to context. Passive and active building systems are the main principles for energy
efficiency. The building integrates these principles that are visible in its building envelope
and uses LEED principles and principles from the green building code of the Philippines
to attain an energy-efficient building. (see Appendix E, LEED Guidelines, p. 73)

Enclosure. Flexibility in the partition of the building is a guiding principle in the design of
the building. Concepts such as movable louver windows and collapsible walls allow the
manipulation of light and ventilation in the building. Orienting the facility to desirable
climate conditions also helps in determining the proper enclosure system.
29
Systems. Energy-saving concepts such as photovoltaic systems and greywater reclamation
play a vital role in energy efficiency. In addition, installing water reclamation systems in
the development will lessen the energy demand for landscape maintenance.

Economic. Integrating sustainable concepts such as innovative agricultural methods create


income-generating activities for the facility.

Furthermore, the design used vertical development to maximize the limited area of the site
and to be able to integrate agricultural farm areas. Flexibility in the interiors was also considered
in the design of Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum, which was achieved by the
introduction of retractable wall systems. Lastly, the building design made use of light colors to
minimize heat gain.

The application of sustainability, experiential and practical approach in the design was adapted
and incorporated mainly in the planning, functional facilities, and building design (refer to
Alternative Architectural Solutions, Appendix I, pg. 102). Sustainability was integrated through
passive design strategies, and experiential approach was incorporated through the user’s
experience in terms of what the people will see, touch, feel, smell and hear over their stay. The
practical approach focused more on the application of materials, efficiency of design, and overall
purist strategy based on the practical guidelines in building design discussed in Table 3. These
approaches were achieved based on the seven principles in designing cultural arts center:
sustainability and durability, comfort and security, functionality, flexibility and adaptability,
accessibility, stimulating and inspiring, and response to context (refer to Table 3).

Space analysis
The space analysis for the proposed project have included matrix diagrams, bubble
diagrams and thumbnail diagrams (refer to Appendix C, p. 62). The matrix diagram is presented
in table form showing the itemized spaces that took place in the building design. This section
conveys the relationship of the functional facilities and distributed into three parts: public, semi-
private, and private spaces. This helps determine the allocation and adjacency of each facility.

The bubble diagram is derived from the analysis of the matrix diagram. This process is
represented through computer aided device which diagrammatic drawings showing the building
spaces, functions, relationships, and circular patterns. This helps translate the listed program into
a planning strategy of the design.
30
The thumbnail diagram is the developed form of the bubble diagram showing the
proportion, size, adjacency and circulation of the facilities. This diagram presents how the planning
of the cultural and creative arts center was formed.
Architectural massing concept
The unique identity of Ilocos Sur defines the building mass through its culture and creative
arts. Like the Bahay na Bato is a style of building that emerged in the Spanish Colonial era of the
Philippines, symbolize formality and durability. It's an improved variant of the standard Bahay
Kubo. Its architecture has changed over the centuries, but it still retains the architectural foundation
of the Bahay Kubo, which refers to the tropical climate, stormy season, and earthquake-prone
atmosphere of the Philippines' entire archipelago and fuses it with the influence of Spanish
colonizers and Chinese merchants. To further enhance the plan's flexibility, the design integrated
collapsible wall partitions to accommodate the changing demands of the Creative Arts and Cultural
Digital Museum.

CONCLUSION

This research aims to propose new forms of museums of the future in which digital technologies
support all kinds of museum activities such as gathering, preserving, researching, exhibiting, and
educating about collections. Further, this paper needs to ensure that this research will maintain
digital technology and use it on a wide range such as media and human interface technologies for
new exhibition styles and data processing technologies for digital archiving of cultural or historical
materials. To fulfill this, the study has provided three objectives to satisfy its requirements.

For the first objective, to identify its characteristic the design proposal presents a combination of
flexible and adaptive design by integrating a wall panel, manufactured plastic bricks, weaved
pattern and local crafts identity. the design of the creative arts and cultural digital museum will
reflect the province cultural image. For the architectural characteristic of the creative arts and
digital museum broad range of building materials is available. Since the province of Ilocos Sur has
no materials that can portray its locality, the objective is to select applicable materials that can
reflect the museum characteristics.

For the second objective, spaces for exhibition which is temporary and permanent, digital space
and interactive are included, also training facility, workshop, storage and gallery. The proposed
Creative arts and Cultural Digital Museum in Ilocos Sur aims to continue and sustain its branding
31
under the UNESCO – Creative Cities Network for the growth of cultural tourism of the city,
providing more opportunities and venue for city's local artists and craftsmen.

Lastly, the idea of the Creative Arts and Cultural Digital Museum intends for social activities as a
driving concept for this study. This concept will be applied according to the planning and zoning
of spaces since the proposed Museum's main function revolves around various social activities.

Further, the research incorporated materials into the design, such as manufactured recycled plastic
and clay, abel weaved pattern, metal. Architectural approaches were identified based on the three
common architectural approaches to Focus (2019). These approaches focused on: sustainability,
experiential, and practical approach. Each of these approaches has a significant role in the design
of the proposed project considering design efficiency through flexibility, comfort, access,
inspiration, response to context, comfort, economy, and users experience to reflect the
functionality of design and the artistic industry of Ilocos Sur.

RECOMMENDATION
The finding on the applicable planning and approaches were incorporated in the project
proposal to reflect the culture and art industry of Ilocos Sur. However, the study included
architectural technologies that could help form and shape buildings or materials. The researcher
recommends having further research on this aspect as additional information that can also be useful
in conceptualizing architectural designs.

several exhibitions simultaneously. The space must be
secure and climate controlled to museum conservation
standards. This must be a clean room, not a carpentry or
paint shop. Appropriate work surfaces, supplies storage,
and collection storage equipment must be provided.

Temporary Collection Storage


- After objects are removed from their crates, they
must be examined, organized, and safely stored prior to
installation. After the exhibition closes, they must be
stored and prepared for crating.

Matting and Framing


- Any museum that exhibits works of art on paper,
photographs, documents, or other two-dimensional paper
objects will have an active matting and framing operation.

museums, however, may have extensive facilities, including
separate laboratories for specialized conservation procedures
such as those required for paintings, sculpture, 3- D decorative
arts, textiles, cars, industrial machinery, fossils, taxidermy, or

APPENDIX H: CITY DEVELOPMENT PLANNING OF ILOCOS SUR: PROJECT
FEASIBILITY STUDY

Background
Over the past few years, the Province of Bantay has always envisioned of having a
new and bigger multi-purpose entertainment and sports facility. Limited resources though
have always deterred the city government from realizing this dream so the city was just
contented of having the Ilocos Sur Stadium repaired and renovated. However, the present
administration is desirous of pursuing this vision into reality hence, the City Planning and
Development Office was tasked to prepare a market-based financial analysis of a publicly-
owned and operated facility.

I. SUBJECT SITE REVIEW OR ASSESSMENT Site Location

Located along the bypass road in Tay-ac Bantay, one of the most promising
development of the province of Ilocos sur. The is a starting location that is a part of ongoing
construction and has new road connected to the city of San Ildefonso.

Proposed Facility
The proposed facility has a robust civic role that could offer the local community
significant benefits. The proposed facility would accommodate a wide range of
entertainment, concert, trade and market shows, and other activities and events requiring a
broad floor area, in compliance with the objectives of the City. In addition, the facility
should be designed to current specifications. A tremendous amount of versatility in terms of
growth capacity is provided by the large scale of the subject site.

II. SITE CONSIDERATIONS


Access
The proposed site has strong access provisions for the local area and region.
The National highway intersection of Tay-ac – Bahet Bypass Road provides
excellent north-south access. Tay-ac Bantay Bypass road adjacent neighbor has
undergone development will soon be improved as the proposed facility undergoes
construction and hopes to provide good arterial access to the site and provide on-site
parking due to its area.
92
Proximity to Demand Generators

The subject site has 39, 541 square meters located explicitly in Barangay
Tay-ac, Bantay, Ilocos Sur. The proposed site is situated in the Eastern tip of the
city, primarily residential with a mix of commercial, light industrial, and recreational
uses. The subject site is zoned institutional since it is government property. This
one permits a variety of commercial and commercial-compatible services.

Bantay, officially the Municipality of Bantay, is a third-class municipality in


the province of Ilocos Sur, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a
population of 47, 246 people. (Census of Population 2020, Region I, Ilocos Region).

Exposure

Due to its proximity to the Tay-ac-Bahet bypass road to the national highway
and other strategic locations, the suggested site is well exposed. These exposures
would be especially relevant if the construction involves commercial space for retail
and service.

Safety and Security

The facility's proposed location is situated outside the city's business district,
an isolated pre-development location that fits the project. In addition to the activities
generated by the area's educational venues, residents' everyday activities, drivers on
the streets surrounding the site give people a sense of security and security most of
the day. Combined with the proximity of the police station, which is the Provincial
Tactical Operations Center's base - Bulag Bantay, this benefit will provide a greater
sense of security for the customers visiting the facility.

Retail assessment

If the Province prefers to include this in the mix of uses, a large retail component
could be attracted by the proposed location. From a business and site point of view, its
vital commercial location, direct access to local and regional markets and considerable
93
exposure and visibility to traffic flow, and a substantial number of façades along the
national highway would enhance the viability of such a commercial section.

III. SUPPLY ANALYSIS

Trade and Exhibition Facility Supply Summary (Ilocos Region: RDP Regional
Development Plan)

Almost all of the cities and municipalities in the region have their Museum.
However, like most, if not all, it is only limited to accommodate small-sized spectators.
Hence, the proposed multi-purpose facility has its entire Ilocos Region as its capture
market base, including CAR's as neighboring province.

Exhibitions are generally categorized as follows:


Trade Shows
Trade shows are trade-to-business shows that are only available to trade.
Attendance to the show is usually by invitation and requires pre-registration. A fee is
typically paid at the time of registration. Trade shows can be industrial (e.g.
manufacturing), retailer/dealer (e.g. manufacturer to distributor), or end-user (e.g.
information technology).

Consumer Shows
Consumer Shows and an entrance fee is generally paid at the gate. Consumer shows
are also referred to as “gate shows” or “public shows”.

Combination (or Mixed) Shows

Combination shows are open to both the trade and the public.
Site selection factors deemed important by trade shows and event planners include:
• Exposition Facility Capacity and Layout
• Exposition Center Quality, Features and Amenities (e,g, adequate power, lighting,
loading facilities and parking)
• Available Hotel Rooms proximate to the Center
• Access to Airports
94
• Professional Demographics of the City
• City Amenities and Attractions

There are several factors that would support use of the proposed multi-purpose facility
as a trade and consumer show venue. Of the site selection factors listed above, the proposed
facility scores strongly on all the factors.

VI. SUPPLY - DEMAND ANALYSIS: PROPOSED FACILITY Demand

Analysis: Proposed Facility -- Events

The following demand analysis examines potential for the proposed multi-
purpose facility to attract certain types of events, including:

• Entertainment - Concerts;
• Entertainment - Other (e.g. Fashion Shows, Comedy Shows, Circuses, etc.);
• Trade and Consumer Shoes; and
• Miscellaneous Events (e.g. Religious Assemblies, Ethnic Celebrations, School
Events, etc.)
Demand Considerations - Entertainment – Concerts
Historically, Bantay and the rest of the region have had difficulty attracting
groups/ performers who are "at the top" in popularity. Museums within the area have
typically attracted performers who are either "on their way up" or declining in
popularity. Deterrents to attracting more popular performers include:The limited
capacity of the existing venues; and

• The run-down condition of these facilities.

However, despite the above draw-backs, interviews with major entertainment


promoters and producers revealed the following:

• If a suitable venue existed in the region, they would promote and produce more
prime entertainment events anywhere in Ilocos sur, venue were in Vigan or Candon.
95
Important design factors for hosting concerts at the proposed multi-purpose
facility include:
• Size - a facility with approximately 8000 seats in Quirino Stadium would be
desirable for most types of entertainment events.

• Acoustics - In order to attract high-quality concerts, the proposed facility would


require good acoustics.

• Other Infrastructure Requirements - Other essential infrastructure requirements


include adequate power supply, wiring, and good lighting, well-designed and
located washrooms, adequate parking, and adequate loading facilities.
Demand Considerations – Entertainment Other
Other dry floor entertainment at the Quirino included six events: Live show (via-
sattelite) , Festivities celebration and dance events.

Facility Considerations - Entertainment- Other


Facility considerations for other dry floor entertainment events are similar to those
noted for concerts.

• Acoustics - In order to attract certain dry floor events, such as Broadway


Musicals, the proposed facility would require good acoustics.
• State-of-the-Art Flooring.
• Other Infrastructure Requirements - Other essential infrastructure requirements
include adequate power supply, wiring, and good lighting, well-designed and
located washrooms, adequate parking, and adequate loading facilities.

Demand Considerations - Trade and Consumer Shows


Almost annually, Quirino Stadium hosted trade and consumer shows, other venues
are also used in Bantay to host trade and consumer shows. However, these facilities are
deemed inadequate because: they are not of sufficient size for many of the shows, thereby
limiting the ability of existing shows to expand and limiting the ability of Bantay to attract
96
new, larger shows; the design and infrastructure of the facilities are not suitable for the trade
and consumer show industry; the "finish" of most of the facilities is not of a caliber to attract
higher-end exhibitors; the primary mandate of the municipal recreation centers / arenas is
to provide opportunities for community recreation, not to service the trade and consumer
show industry, which limits the ability of show producers to book these facilities.

In addition to the factors noted above, interviews with show producers revealed that
there is demand for a larger and appropriately designed venue for trade and consumer
shows in Bantay. Such a venue would enable the city to attract and host a larger number
and diversity of trade and consumer shows, and would enable certain existing shows to
expand to meet exhibitor demand.

Facility Considerations - Trade and Consumer Shows


Based on industry interviews, the following facility features would be required to
enable the proposed multi-purpose facility to enhance Bantay ability to service the trade
and consumer show market:

• Contiguous exhibit space;


• Professional facility in terms of appearance and design;
• Provision of the necessary electrical power, hookups and lighting;
• Adequate access to the facility and parking (on site and nearby); and
• Adequate loading / unloading bays.

Scheduling Considerations - Trade and Consumer Shows


Scheduling considerations are very important when assessing to what extent the
proposed multi-purpose facility should be used as a trade and consumer show
venue. Such shows are typically two to seven days in duration, including move-in and
move- out time, depending on the length of the show and the size and complexity of the
individual exhibitors. Trade and consumer shows, therefore, block the facility for other uses
for periods ranging from a few days to one week.

In order for trade and consumer show producers to secure bookings for National shows,
they must coordinate their schedules with those of the trade show circuits of these shows.
97
For the larger shows, scheduling needs to take place several years in advance. Producers
need continuity of venues and protected dates to ensure that events are successful over the
longer term.

Promoting Philippine Culture and Values

The rich culture and values of the people in Region 1 are embodied in their diverse
beliefs, customs and traditions, religion, history, and morals. These were shaped by their
shared background and experiences which play a significant role in fostering social
cohesion and nurturing common aspirations that provides a strong foundation for charting
the region’s future. Culture offers benefits necessary to achieving inclusive, sustainable
and people-centered development.

Enriching the region’s culture and values through peoples’ awareness and
appreciation will pave the way to maximizing the benefits to achieve socioeconomic
development. Promotion of culture and values should be integrated in the formulation of
development policies and programs in the region.

This Plan recognizes the role of culture as a building block of the region’s
development by
(a) empowering the community;
(b) strengthening regional culture;
(c) improving community engagement;
(d) increasing peoples’ awareness.
Strategic Framework
Targets

To recognize the role of culture as a building block of development and to promote


culture and values in the region, the following priority strategies will be pursued:

• Sub-Sector Outcome 1: Enhance community engagement by instilling values of culture and


concept of cultural diversity.
98
Strengthen representation of marginalized groups in Local Development Planning,
including the full

implementation of the IPRA Law. The active participation of marginalized groups


which include ICCs and IPs in local fora is the key to ensuring that all factors that may affect
them will be considered at all levels of decision making. The DILG will strictly monitor and
encourage LGUs to comply with Memorandum Circular 2010-119 pursuant to Section 16
of RA 8371, and other pertinent laws and policies in the region.

Sub-Sector Outcome 2: Stronger regional culture

Establish database/inventory of tangible and intangible cultural resources. With


the dispersed information of both tangible and intangible cultural resources in the region, a
comprehensive database on culture and local heritage including language, poetry, practices,
among others, will be established. likewise, LGUs will be encouraged to conduct their
respective cultural mapping to document their respective local cultural resources.

Mainstream culture in LGU programs. LGUs will be encouraged to mainstream


culture in their programs since only a few of them have exerted much attention on the value
of their culture and cultural heritage. They may also undertake various conservation practices
as well as conduct cultural awareness programs.

Sub-Sector Outcome 3: Cultural awareness of the people increased


Promote and popularize culture through quad media (IEC, mass and social
media platforms). Various mode of communication will be utilized to promote and
popularize culture, history and values in the region. Learning materials will be developed to
promote cultural diversity. Concerned government institutions, both at the sub-national and
local levels, will collaborate to develop information materials, and disseminate.

Promote culture and arts through fora, festivals, summits and other cultural activities.
To promote culture and arts, various festivals, fora, summits and other cultural activities will continue
99
to be held in the region. This will help enhance the pride of women and men in the region to preserve
and cultivate local culture. Festivals can be included with other tourism activities to encourage
tourists to extend their stay in the region.

Sustain and promote cultural education program. To increase peoples’ awareness and
appreciation of the region’s culture and values, cultural education program will be sustained and
promoted in the region. Further, this program seeks to develop among Filipinos greater awareness,
understanding, and appreciation of their culture and arts, towards the evolution of a consciousness
that will improve the quality of their lives. This program was designed to make cultural education
accessible to all sectors, particularly the youth, teachers, artists and cultural workers, officials and
employees of the government, members of the media, and civil society
