What does your dream community look like?
On September 12, 2026, Book & Art-Venture Club (BAV) joined hands with Executive Genesis Services, Inc. (Exegen)and Barangay San Martin de Porres for a meaningful Saturday filled with storytelling, creativity, music, and community spirit.
Around 28 children participated in this special Saturday School activity, where they were encouraged to imagine a better community and share their ideas through art.

The session began with a reading of Ang Pambihirang Sombrero, written by Jose Miguel Tejido, a Filipino children's story that opened conversations about kindness, helping others, and making a positive difference in our communities.
Through storytelling, the children were invited to think beyond the pages of the book and reflect on how small acts of kindness and cooperation can help create a better place for everyone.

After the storytelling session, the children participated in a creative art activity centered on the theme "My Dream Community."
Using their imagination, they illustrated the kind of community they would love to live in. The activity became even more meaningful when the children were given the opportunity to present their artwork and explain their ideas to everyone.
Beyond practicing creativity, this encouraged self-expression, communication, confidence, and a sense of belonging.

The gathering was not just about reading and drawing!
Singing and dancing brought additional energy and excitement to the gathering, giving the children opportunities to participate, express themselves, and simply enjoy being together.
These moments reminded us that learning can take many forms—and that play, creativity, and shared experiences are just as valuable in helping children grow.
Learning, Creativity, and Community

At Book & Art-Venture Club, we believe stories and art can bring people together, encourage meaningful conversations, and help young learners see the world from different perspectives.
Through community outreach activities like Saturday School, we hope to nurture values such as kindness, cooperation, empathy, and responsibility while giving children a welcoming space to express their thoughts and ideas.
