What would it be for the world to exist without art? The common answer would be that a.) it would become lifeless, and b.) everything might just crumble. Art is a foundation of the larger society, serving as a medium of expression and creativity in a world overrun by monotony.

Igor Babailov argues that art is an international language, understood by all. His argument encapsulates that art exists for the people, and by the people. So, several LPSci students have risen to the challenge to showcase their talents in this year’s LPSCI Arts Club’s Likhang Lapiscian Art Exhibit and Fair.

The LPSci Arts Club’s Likhang Lapiscian Art Exhibit and Fair will kick off Tuesday, February 21, 2023, at the LPSci Grounds. Several artworks from different artists across the school will be displayed inside the Junior High School Waiting Shed, near the Villar Building.

Meanwhile, artists from Grades 7 to 11, along with other Arts Club officers, will also sell their artworks and merchandise from February 21, 2023, to February 23, 2023. The artists will display their artwork in booths set up outside the School Auditorium in the Aguilar Building of the campus.

Common merchandise to be sold includes stickers, prints, and if you’re feeling a little bit extra - commissions. However, some artists have also decided to sell unique items like hand-painted bags (Pia Alamazan - Grade 7), paper flowers (Alex - Grade 7), live photo booth (Bwan Lila - Grade 9), memo pads and deco top loaders (Candy Club - Grade 12), and button pins (Ayamrice - Grade 9).

The artists are expected to upload their catalog of products on their social media accounts. Some artists are also going to collaborate.
