Our mission is to preserve, develop, teach and share Filipino cultural heritage, art, folklore, and other indigenous cultural traditions through its dances, music and songs with the purpose of instilling Filipino pride among its youth
History
The Mutya Philippine Dance Company was formed in April of 1990 in response to several forces. Young Filipino Americans wanted to understand their roots. They wanted a place where they felt others could understand their struggles and values while being able to feel comfortable in their own skin. Parents of these children also wanted an organization that could really teach the beauty and diversity of the Filipino culture through music and dance.
In 2025, we proudly celebrate our 35th anniversary! For over three decades, our art form has touched countless lives, and we are grateful to everyone who has been a part of our journey.
