Celebrating its 15th year as a city, Biñan reaffirmed its dedication to the arts and cultural heritage, looking forward to a future where creativity and history go hand in hand.

The city also commemorated its 80th anniversary of liberation from Japanese forces and its 278th founding anniversary on Sunday — milestones that reflect its journey of resilience, progress and cultural preservation.

“In this space, boundless creativity thrives, imagination takes flight, and wise voices resonate through the ages,” Mayor Walfredo Dimaguila Jr. declared as he led the unveiling of the Biñan City Center for Performing Arts.

He described the new center as a sanctuary for artistic expression, a place where “stories are told, dreams are realized, and hearts are transformed by the works of Biñanense artists.”

Alongside this commitment to the arts, Biñan continues to safeguard its historic sites, including the Alberto Mansion, the ancestral home of Teodora Alonso, mother of Dr. Jose Rizal.

As the city’s oldest surviving structure, it stands as a testament to Biñan’s deep-rooted history and its role in shaping the nation’s identity. Despite rapid urbanization, Biñan remains steadfast in striking a balance between development and cultural preservation.

Reinforcing this commitment, the City Council declared Aug. 7, 2024 to Aug. 7, 2025 as Theater Arts Year, further positioning Biñan as a cultural hub in the region. (PNA)
