OROSA HOUSE EXHIBIT

Last Sunday, the Orosa Ancestral house (Nore's family house in Taal) became the site of the Satelite Museum project of the Metropolitan Museum. The exhibit mainly consisted of Nore's unique 'embroidery' series prints befitting of the the Taal setting. According to the Metropolitan Museum officials, this project in Taal is one of several Satelite such sites all over the country. The project seeks to raise awareness of Filipino art and customs. It is understood that the project is designed to exhibit the works of Fernando Amorsolo in tandem with other notable artists (such as Nore Lim in the case of Taal.

During the successful inauguration, many guests from Manila came to enjoy the exhibit and the wonderful Skyline merienda. Among the prominents guests were a daughter of Fernando Amorsolo himself, the director of the Metropolitan Museum and Taal town politicians and representatives of bueno familias there. Of course, the CAFA was well represented during the inauguration by the likes of Pearl and Otegs, Cecille, Myrna and her husband, and Oni and Bili.

The exhibit project is open to the public and will endure up to December for those who may be planning to visit Batangas soon. As usual, the formidable Nore RS Lim was the gracious host (ably supported by siblings Lynn and Francis and of course, hubby Didi) who breezed through the formalities required in her usual effective and engaging way. Congrats once again, Nore!
