Our own shared space
In the tribal village of huts and dwellings shared spaces were provided so that social interaction on a regular and sustained basis was made. The members impart their gained knowledge, their fears and aspirations in these forums that eventually enhanced their social identity.

The general view that our community is strong wherever it has taken roots is true. Our people, tenacious and ambitious integrate easily with other cultures.

Since Plaza Filipino Incorporated (PFI) started eight years ago, we have stated our achievements that we are both humble and proud to proclaim.

Have art, will travel!
‘The easiest way to a man’s Art is through his stomach”. A satisfied and full belly lingers on art appreciation which is the highest of all material needs when everything in life; education, wealth or prestige has been achieved. History without art is impossible!
Plaza Filipino continues to build bridges to reach out to the Filipino Australian community with its latest fund raising activity for 2011, the Art for a Cause drive.
