CEBU CITY, Philippines— The Cebu City Government, through the Cultural and Historical Affairs Office (CHAO), will hold its 4th Cebu City Arts Week on February 10 to 14, 2020.

For an entire week, CHAO has prepared activities for all artists in Cebu.

“The kick-off ceremony will be on February 10 at the Plaza Independencia, where there will be a live sketching with Mayor Edgardo Labella and Vice Mayor Mike Rama,” said Diaz.

Diaz also said that the highlight of this celebration is the painting contest that will happen on the last day, which is on the 14th.
