FEU And The Heritage Conservation Society Set For "Significance In The Details" Lecture On May 4

For the first time since the merry month of May was dubbed National Heritage Month, the Heritage Conservation Society (HCS) has swung into the mood of things for National Heritage Month, organized by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) and partnered with Far Eastern University (FEU) for an afternoon of learning, capped by a light hearted concert, a tribute to Broadway, at the university’s auditorium.

The heritage event, entitled, “Significance in the Details: Identifying Values in Heritage Sites and Structures” is comprised of two lectures and a highly informative walkabout talk through the 91- year old university.

The talks are sequenced in such a way that the audience will be taken from a basic understanding of the Heritage Law, ( The Significant Other: The Heritage Law Beyond Presumptions by HCS President, Atty. Mark Evidente) to a virtual experience ( The Relevance of Digital Scanning in Documenting Heritage Structures by Conrad Alampay, HCS trustee and President of Digiscript Inc.), and finally a tactile experiencing of structural details, with a walkabout led by FEU’s Director of the President’s Committee on Culture, Martin Lopez, as he points out the well-preserved Art Deco details of this 91 - year old declared heritage structure.
