PAWA’s main goal is to create and encourage literature and arts for the preservation and enrichment of Filipino and Filipino American historical, cultural and spiritual values.
Philippine American Writers and Artists, Inc. (PAWA) evolved from what was Philippine American Women Writers and Artists (PAWWA), an organization established in 1994. In 1998, it was reorganized into PAWA to be more inclusive of the community, and membership became open to other Philippine American writers and artists regardless of gender. The original members envisioned PAWA as a venue to create and encourage literature and arts for the preservation and enrichment of Filipino and Filipino American historical, cultural, and spiritual values, and to bring these to a larger audience. Members of the Board and the general membership support and promote one another’s creative efforts.
Since 2009, we have held our monthly literary and performance series in collaboration with Arkipelago Books, the Bayanihan Center, the Filipino American Center at the SF Public Library, the Manilatown Heritage Foundation, Kundiman, Achiote Press, Poets & Writers, Oakland Asian Cultural Center, Eth-Noh-Tec, Eastwind Books of Berkeley, Kearny Street Workshop, and Bird & Beckett Books. We are invested in creating venues for Filipino American artists, and have worked to grow our community across ethnic and aesthetic boundaries. We believe it is important to provide access, and opportunity, which we have also done through fiscal sponsorship of community artists.
