CULTURAL CENTER OF THE PHILIPPINES (CCP) - 50th ANNIVERSARY

The Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) is a government owned and controlled corporation established to preserve, develop and promote arts and culture in the Philippines.  The CCP was established through Executive Order No. 30 s. 1966 by President Ferdinand Marcos. Although an independent corporation of the Philippine government, it receives an annual subsidy and is placed under the National Commission for Culture and the Arts for purposes of policy coordination.  The CCP is headed by an 11-member Board of Trustees. 

The CCP provides performance and exhibition venues for various local and international productions at the 62-hectare (150-acre) Cultural Center of the Philippines Complex located in the cities of Pasay and Manila. Its artistic programs include the production of performances, festivals, exhibitions, cultural research, outreach, preservation, and publication of materials on Philippine art and culture. It holds its headquarters at the Tanghalang Pambansa (National Theater), a structure designed by National Artist for Architecture, Leandro V. Locsin. Locsin would later design many of the other buildings in the CCP Complex.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_Center_of_the_Philippines
