MANILA, Philippines — Shell Pilipinas Corporation continues to champion young Filipino artists through this year’s 58th Shell National Students Art Competition (NSAC), a program that has nurtured generations of creatives for almost six decades. What makes this year’s Shell NSAC more significant is the strong collaboration of brands such as Boysen Philippines, IFEX, and Airspeed, along with museums and galleries nationwide.
Through the combined efforts of long-time and new sponsors, the competition continues to evolve as a dynamic platform that celebrates the country’s visionaries.
Sustaining impact through shared commitment
This year’s theme, “Alab”, calls on college students to ignite their creative passion and express ideas that resonate with today’s generation. Shell and its partners share a common drive: to empower young talent and contribute to societal progress through the transformative power of the arts.
For Boysen Philippines, championing sustainable creativity means supporting platforms like Shell NSAC that showcase the power of art in shaping society. Boysen remains committed to nurturing young talents and fostering a community that envisions art as a force for the future.
International Fine Paper Exchange Inc (IFEX) believes that the competition reflects how creativity can fuel not only artistic expression but also broader economic opportunities. By collaborating with Shell, IFEX reinforces its mission to link Filipino talent to industries where innovation and artistry intersect.
Airspeed, on the other hand, emphasizes innovation and connectivity, values that resonate strongly with Shell NSAC’s national reach. Through its support, Airspeed helps bridge communities and students across regions, ensuring that every aspiring artist has access to every opportunity.
Beyond private sector partners, Shell NSAC is also strengthened by the support of galleries nationwide. These institutions view the program as a crucial platform for fostering creative education, helping students showcase their talents, and inspiring the next generation of Filipino artists. Through these partnerships, Shell NSAC continues to extend its reach, proving that art can thrive in every community that celebrates Filipino culture.
