T'nalak Festival 2012


South Cotabato will be celebrating the 13th T’nalak Festival this coming July 13-18,in time for the commemoration of the 46th Foundation Anniversary of South Cotabato. This year’s celebration has the theme “South Cotabato: Making a Difference, Amo Na ‘Ya!”

The festival is named after the renowned T’nalak, a cloth meticulously handwoven by the T’bolis. Creating the fabric requires patient labor and craftsmanship as it undergoes a series of steady processes like dyeing, heating, and beating. The vibrant and striking colors in intricate patterns of the fabric are symbolic of the province’s dynamic dreams through its people, culture and tradition.
Here are the schedule of activities for the festival:
