ArtPetron partners with Philippine Ballet Theatre


In support of Filipino artists, Petron Corporation, the country’s leading oil company, was one of the supporters of the Philippine Ballet Theater’s 24th Season.  Winners of the recent ArtPetron 10 student art competition were displayed during the performances of Carmina Burana and Other Ballets at the Cultural Center of the Philippines last November 19-21, 2010, and the Nutcracker Ballet at the Meralco Theatre last December 15, 2010.

Themed Alay sa Natatanging Pamayanan, ArtPetron 10 featured Petron’s involvement in the communities and its dynamic partnerships with local folk in uplifting their quality of life.  Petron’s CSR programs revolve around education, environment, health and human services, and other advocacies relating to clean air and the energy sector.  ArtPetron 10 encouraged the student artists to render creative renditions and transform its partnerships with Filipino communities into exceptional paintings and photographs.  The six grand prize winners in the ArtPetron 10 painting category were exhibited for the appreciation of the PBT audiences.
The ArtPetron National Student Art Competition is a painting and photography contest open to all college students.  It is Petron’s advocacy with the Filipino youth, and is also an expression of the oil company’s long-standing support for the preservation, appreciation and rediscovery of Philippine arts, culture, values and traditions.  Over the past ten years, ArtPetron has taken on a life of its own, and has become a much-loved and much-awaited art contest for the youth.  It is Petron’s youth brand with a mass base of loyal followers, and gives deeper meaning to Petron’s advocacy of pride in being Filipino.
