In August, Samsung and Yuchengco Museum launched Culture Connect: Castrillo @ 50, an Instagram contest, which aims to strengthen Filipinos’ patriotism and appreciation for public art.

The Instagram contest that commemorates the works of Eduardo Castrillo is ongoing until end of September

The Instagram contest commemorates the works of nationalist Filipino sculptor, Eduardo Castrillo, as he celebrates 50 years of being a professional artist. Known as the monument maker, Castrillo created masterpieces such as Binhi ng mga Bayani at Rizal Park, and People Power located on EDSA, which are vivid reflections of the Philippine history and culture. 

Culture Connect: Castrillo @ 50 has run through the entire duration of August, but has been extended until end of September to accommodate more entries.

Same contest mechanics remain applicable. 

Post a photo of any of the select public art monuments on Instagram, and tell what it means to you as a Filipino. Be as expressive and creative, tag @CastrilloCultureConnect and use the hashtags #SamsungCultureConnect and #Castrillo50.
