According to Art Tibaldo who also has two works in the exhibit, the show was "spearheaded by spouses Raffy and Joselyn Kapuno with the support of various NGOs, cultural groups and the National Commission for Indigenous Peoples."
Also scheduled for the month are the following events: a regional IP youth assembly, screening of relevant films at the Baguio Cinematheque, forums on indigenous rights, autonomy, and federalism, a book launching, tree planting, and the Gong Festival.
