MMSU Students Visit Living with Nature Center

San Vicente, Ilocos Sur

Dr Abe V Rotor

"Learn and Live"

 (Motto of the Open University)

   MMSU students pose with their work in a quick painting session

       

"Nature is the best teacher, model and friend." Painting by the author. 

 

Begin the begin, a song goes on;

end does not end in perfection;

yet in between lies the challenge

of art to its fullest expression.

 

            

Living with Nature museum and art gallery

Bring Nature home in an art gallery,

     a home museum and library;

preserve history into a living memory,

     folk stories and mythology.

    

18th Century Basi wine cellar

Basi meets European standard of port and sherry,

reminiscent of the Galleon Trade's long history,

basi was controlled under Spanish monopoly,

'til a Revolt broke up, so with the basi industry.
