🌏📚 𝗠𝗘𝗘𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟 𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗢𝗙 𝗟𝗜𝗦𝗠 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲! ✨

Get ready to connect, discover, and celebrate culture through libraries! 📖🔗

Inspired by the theme “ASEAN-LINK (ASEAN Libraries: Integrating Networked Knowledge) for Culture,” this year’s poster brings together the colors, heritage, and cultural treasures of the 11 ASEAN nations—woven into one vibrant visual story of connection, solidarity, and shared knowledge. 🌏🤝📚

🎨 Designed by Mr. Jhucel Atienza del Rosario, 2026 PBBY-Alcala Grand Prize winner, digital artist, and public school teacher from Cavite.

🧵 At its heart, the Filipino banig represents how individual strands—and nations—come together to form something stronger. Around it, cultural symbols, books, and library shelves illustrate how libraries serve as bridges connecting people, knowledge, and heritage across Southeast Asia.
