Art will once again take over Manila as Xavier School San Juan announces the highly anticipated Xavier Art Fest 2025.

50 Participating Galleries This year, the festival will feature over 50 local and international galleries, showcasing a well-curated mix of modern and contemporary works.


A special exhibition will be organized by the ALT Group, where galleries will present the craftsmanship of their talented artists, with works curated by Nilo Ilarde.


The event, which runs for three days, promises an immersive experience for art enthusiasts, artists, collectors, and the general public.

Whiskey x ART Auction

Another major highlight of the event is the first-ever Whiskey x ART auction. This auction will present 10 bottles of 25-year-old Fettercairn whiskey, each uniquely personalized by a group of exceptional artists. It’s a beautiful fusion of whiskey and art.

Art for a Noble Cause

For 10 years, Xavier Art Fest has supported noble causes. Originally created as a fundraiser for Xavier’s Educational Trust Fund, the festival has evolved to support retired Xavier teachers with their medical bills.

As Xavier Art Fest kicks off a new year with a special exhibition, Xavier School San Juan continues to highlight exceptional artistry, creativity, and innovation in the local art scene.

The festival will be open to the public from January 24 to 26, 2025, at the Fr. Cortina Sports Center in San Juan.
