Style Curators
A spotlight on Manila’s rising generation of creative leaders
In the heart of Araneta City, known as the City of Firsts, where creativity pulses through every alley and inspiration is part of the skyline—ibis Styles Manila Araneta City proudly launches a pioneering artistic movement: The Style Curators. More than just a localized brand program, this marketing communications initiative is a bold celebration of artistry, community, and self-expression. It’s a space where emerging creatives—especially the young and upcoming creative minds with a passion for art, design, and storytelling can flourish. With vibrant, welcoming venues like Le Bistro and strEATs Coworking Café and private corners, ibis Styles is reimagining hospitality as a playground for creativity and collaboration.
The Style Curators series is designed to empower emerging artists across the metro to uplift the next generation of visionaries—those who dare to dream, design, and explore. Whether it’s through visual arts, multimedia, fashion, or performance, these artists aren’t just creators; they’re changemakers shaping the evolving identity of Manila’s cultural landscape. In partnership with Studio ArtFix, the program features a rotating series of workshops, artist residencies, exhibitions, and creative labs that offer emerging talents not only a platform but also a community of support. It is a purposeful initiative at its core, empowering individuals whose works are rooted in culture, compassion, and meaningful impact.
“The Style Curators program shines a spotlight on Manila’s rising generation of creative leaders—visionaries who are boldly reshaping the city’s rich and diverse art scene, from visual to multimedia to performance art,” shares Erwin Dona III, Cluster Marketing Head. “At ibis Styles Manila Araneta City, we’re proud to offer them not just a platform, but a true creative playground. Whether it’s the inviting French charm and refined comfort of Le Bistro, the dynamic pulse of our coworking spaces, or the intimate vibe of our strEATs private dining rooms, each corner of our space is designed to inspire, express, and connect. It’s here that bold ideas are born and artistic energy thrives—powered by community, collaboration, and style.”
