Clean Comedy Day is celebrated every April 28 and pays tribute to good, clean humor. While comedy can be a vehicle for the subversive, it doesn’t always have to rely on filth to be funny. In fact, the more you can do without resorting to shock value and crudeness, the easier your jokes can reach everyone. Clean Comedy Day celebrates this more family-friendly form of entertainment by keeping it sensible so that everyone can join in on the laughs.
Order of National Artist
Artists all over are deserving of much praise, and that is precisely what the Order of National Artists — or ‘Orden ng Gawad Pambansang Alagad ng Sining’ — celebrates on April 27. This honor is given to all those Filipino citizens who have significantly contributed to the Philippine arts and cultural scene. This is actually the highest prestige given to people in the Philippines, and only the best of the best are recommended for this honor.
