LIKHA Got Talent 2026

Ni Oggie Medina

I became a surprised judge when National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) chairman Dr. Eric Zerrudo made a request during the last day of LIKHA 5 exhibit at LIKHA Tent of Likhang Filipino Exhibition Halls in Pasay City.

The winner that night was Ms. Beth Talac, a member of Tau’t Bato (meaning “people of the rock”) tribe from an indigenous cultural community residing in the isolated Singnapan Basin of Rizal, Palawan.

I enjoyed watching the different indigenous tribes of the Philippines showcasing their God-given talents.
