Municipality of Pinili - Abel Festival!

In 2025, the town of Pinili and the entire province of Ilocos Norte will celebrate the 100th birthday of a true Ilocano treasure—master weaver Nana Magdalena Gamayo. Unbeknownst to her, her family and neighbors had been secretly planning a grand celebration to honor her lifelong dedication to the art of Weaving.

As preparations unfolded, the community came together—some scattered pristine kapas like falling snow, while others meticulously spun, dyed, and wove intricate patterns. Every thread told a story, weaving together the rich heritage of Pinili.

Finally, the big day arrived. As Nana Dalen visited the worksite, she felt a pang of sadness—no one was there. But suddenly, her loved ones emerged, joyfully singing and cheering. "Pada-padakam a siraragsak, a kumablaaw, mangipaduyakyak, ta nagtengan ti aldaw a pannakayanak, ni Nana Dalen, a napnuan gasat."

Overwhelmed, Nana Dalen smiled, surrounded by the love and gratitude of a community she had inspired for generations. [A]
