In celebration of 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.

Following the launch of DIWA’s EPHEMERALITY exhibit at The Hoxton, join an evening of honest conversation about the Filipino American experience in Portland. Gathering voices from across the community. From hospitality leaders, tech innovators, creative professionals, tourism advocates, and marketing strategists, explore how the community has grown and where it will go next.

Join the community conversation to share your thoughts on how FilAm’s can make a mark on the city, or to ask the panelists your questions. How has the community evolved in Portland? What opportunities are ahead? Learn how to support each other while creating lasting impact.

Come ready to listen, share, and connect. Whether you’ve been part of Portland’s Filipino community for decades, are just finding your place in it, or are an ally of the community, your voice matters in shaping a collective future.

Free event. Light refreshments provided. EPHEMERALITY exhibition on view throughout the evening.
