SM Aura presents a vibrant hub of creativity with ‘ART IN AURA: Visions Made Visible,’ a collaborative art showcase in partnership with Galerie Francesca Group and Sunshine Place.
From August 15 to 24, mallgoers are invited to explore an inspiring collection of works from both emerging and established Filipino artists. The showcase spans paintings, sculptures, photography, multimedia pieces, and art-inspired merchandise, alongside immersive, hands-on creative experiences.
As one of the highlights of SM Aura’s ongoing initiative to spotlight Filipino artistry, Art in Aura offers a platform where renowned and local talents can exhibit and sell their works, connect with new audiences, and contribute to a thriving creative community. This is more than an art fair. It is a celebration of imagination, passion, and the skill of Filipino artists, open to enthusiasts of all ages and backgrounds.
