The event is invite-only to help manage the number of people attending and to comply with COVID-19 health restrictions. Those interested in attending can email Ferrera at mferrera@lcss.ca.
“Once the event is at full capacity, any other interested clients can opt-in to a mailing list that will alert them about any other future events that LCSS will be hosting,” Ferrera suggested.
The Friday celebration will consist of a presentation on Filipino history and culture, keynote speakers, and a performance from a Filipino choir before some offering of refreshments and time for networking.
