Skipped work to go back to school today! Got to check out the interactive booth created by students of Benilde Creative Industries Management (AB-CIM) program for their Marketing and Public Relations for Artistic and Creative Industries subject. The setup came complete with obligatory selfie mirror, DIY love letters to Escolta, photos & video tours of creative studios throughout FUB, custom HUB merch, products that can be found at the HUB & a sungka board filled with sweets! Thank you for partnering with us and shining a light on local creativity. The youth are THE FUTURE! πŸš€
