UP ASTERISK
UP ASTERISK (Asosasyon ng Kabataang Artista, Kritiko, at Iskolar ng Sining at Kultura - Unibersidad ng Pilipinas) is a student organization and artist collective based in the College of Arts and Letters, University of the Philippines, Diliman. Geared towards both the production and criticism of all forms of art: music, literature, visual art, and performance, UP ASTERISK facilitates workshops, educational discussions, and film viewings, and mounts exhibits, performances, and other art-related events in the hopes of promoting art and culture and its significance in the Philippine landscape.
History
U.P. Asosasyon ng Kabataang Artista, Kritiko at Iskolar ng Sining at Kultura (ASTERISK) was founded by eight Art Studies students in 2006 to promote art practice and scholarship, and provide a support group for students and enthusiasts of art through field training. Over the years, the organization has evolved from pure art criticism and scholarship to art production with the inclusion of new members from various fields including Mass Communication, Fine Arts, and Literature.
On its first year, the organization focused on building a base of art scholars and enthusiasts devoted to the promotion of art as a legitimate force in building and improving the society. During the Academic Year 2006-2007, the organization boosted its membership efforts, yielding two successful batches: Batch Uno and Batch Techie.
The following academic year saw the rise of the organization as a legitimate body in the College of Arts and Letters, spearheading the campaign to market the Art Studies program to high school students in both private and public schools. In light of the university's tuition and other fee increases, the organization took the initiative to promote the program through activities encompassing high school students about to take the UPCAT. In 2007-2008, the organization won the most prestigious award for CAL Organizations: The Most Outstanding College of Arts and Letters Organization. This success, coupled with the organization's weekly activities cemented its position as a body promoting arts and culture whether rewarded or not.

Nothing however can match the organization's annual February Event, celebrating its anniversary with a combination of all its popular events - Freelikula, Kwenkap, Sining Series-Exhibit, and Interschool Workshop. ASTERISK's exhibits are popular because they showcase its members own artworks while its Interschool Workshop combines membership training and development while sharing these experiences with high school students.
