a group exhibit by Kansilay Visual Arts Society Education has as its ultimate objective the improvement of a person’s quality of life. It offers to underprivileged adults and children a chance to escape from poverty. It is thus an essential tool for the economic, social and cultural development of all populations around the world. KanVas KanVAS (Kansilay Visual Artist Society), is a group of artists (Kansilay Visual Artist Society) unified with the advocacy of documenting people culture, tradition, and heritage through creative visual presentations. The group is composed of artists from different art disciplines and background and aims to impart their insights on life by showing it in their color palettes, strokes, pressure and the way they see their subjects. They are more into the representational approach in painting in which have painted in their subjects in their own interpretation with what it depicts in reality. The group has started it’s journey on 2008 and it’s members are all from Silay City. The group was initially formed to merge other artists from Silay city. They have exhibited their works in Bernardino Jalandoni Museum, Dizon Ramos Museum as well as the Negros Museum all from Negros Occidental. They went on hiatus last 2011 and went back to the scene again last October 11, 2014 with “Palanublion”. This time the members are not exclusively from Silay but also different parts of the Negros Occidental and to further extend their reach. We all know for a fact that globally, a great number of children are unable to go to school. -

A History of the Parish of Talisay City (Neg. Occ.) from 1850 to the 1990S
A HISTORY OF THE PARISH OF TALISAY CITY (NEG. OCC.) FROM 1850 TO THE 1990S Emmanuel Luis A. ROMANILLOS On 20 June 1848, the whole island of Negros was entrusted to the Augustini- an Recollects.1 This was in the wake of the ocular inspection tour of the vast island of Negros by the governor of the Visayas in mid-1847 and his advice to the Do- minican Bishop Romualdo Jimeno (1808-1872) of Cebu to increase the parishes. The governor deplored the state of the parishes in the hands of the diocesan priests. A few weeks after, Bishop Jimeno saw for himself the lamentable condition — both spiritual and material— of Negros Island and he then urged the transfer of the parishes to a religious order. The governor-general in Manila acceded to the bishop’s request in a letter dated April 1848 and in May he informed the provincial superiors of the religious orders in Manila about the deplorable plight of Negros. On 29 May 1948, the Augustinian Recollect prior provincial accepted the parish- es of Negros and the governor general entrusted the spiritual administration of the huge but largely undeveloped province in a royal decree of 20 June 1848. The first two Rec- ollects arrived at Amlan and Siaton [in present-day Negros Oriental] in August 1848. On 26 October 1848, two Augustinian Recollect missionaries arrived in Negros. Father Tomás Mezquita (1817-1860) took possession of Himamaylan and, two days later, on 28 October Father Andrés Cobos (1816-1877) that of Kabankalan. The spir- itual abandonment of the Christian population of the four towns was the chief reason for the priority of curate assignment given them by the Dominican prelate of Cebu.
