PROLOGUE: EPHEMERALITY
by: DIWA x Say Say Experience x PAMANA in Downtown Portland
October 10, 2025 • 4:00—8:00 PM • The Hoxton, Portland
In celebration of next month’s Filipino American History Month, we are collaborating with PAMANA for an experiential exhibition created by Kyle Beltran and Kat Magsaysay.
Join us at The Hoxton, Portland to explore three intimate gallery spaces featuring fashion photography, styled mannequins, and cultural storytelling, and taste three limited dishes by PAMANA.
The images were captured by Celeste Noche and styled by Kyle Beltran, inspired by childhood memories growing up in the Philippines and assimilating in America. It’s both personal but a universal story to not only immigrants but anyone who’s faced the challenge of answering, “Who Am I?”
Both food and fashion play an impactful role in what it means to be accepted for who we are in our culture and how we choose to visually express that part of us.
Reserve your ticket and see what it looks like to come home to yourself.
Tiered Entry Between 4–8:00 PM:
Afternoon Experience • Evening Experience • VIP Experience
Includes: Limited PAMANA Bites • Filipino-inspired Cocktails • Cash Bar • Community
Limited tickets available. Reserve yours today.
A Partnership Born from Purpose
When DIWA founder Kyle Beltran's mother was diagnosed with dementia and his grandmother was already in late-stage Alzheimer's, he realized the cultural wisdom and family stories he had yet to learn would soon be lost forever. This moment led to DIWA's creation. Now we're using our platform to fight the very disease that inspired our mission. We're honored to announce our partnership with the Alzheimer's Association Oregon and Washington Chapter, joining their "Do What You Love to End Alz" campaign.
Our Commitment
Through this partnership, DIWA is taking action on multiple fronts:
Financial Support
A portion of proceeds from our Prologue: EPHEMERALITY event will be donated to the Alzheimer's Association Oregon and Washington Chapter to support research and family resources.
Community Fundraising
We've launched a dedicated campaign page with a goal of raising $5,000 for the Alzheimer's Association Oregon and Washington Chapter. Every dollar supports vital research and provides resources for families navigating this disease.
