In line with the objectives of Canadian Multiculturalism, Folklorico Filipino (Canada) aims for the development and promotion of the Filipino identity through performing arts by:
Depicting Philippine culture through music, song, dance, and drama
Training interested Filipinos of all ages in Philippine folk music, dance, and drama
Showing the public Philippine customs, traditions, and history through folk song, dance and drama
Encouraging Filipinos and other Canadians to discover and develop their talents and abilities and to develop their potential in the performing arts.
As a cultural group, Folklorico proudly operates as a non-profit organization working from voluntary donations and contributions through sponsorship and performance fees. Dancers, choreographers and administrators work without financial remuneration. Volunteering is rewarded by the fulfilment achieved through the sharing of filipino culture and heritage. Folklorico has been involved with the social and cultural affairs of many organizations, schools, colleges, and governments. Since its founding in 1974, the commitment to promote the Filipino identity within the Canadian mosaic remains unchanged.
