The life-size statue of Our Lady of Manaoag and the framed
miraculuous rose petals of the Virgin Mary top the ongoing marian
exhibit at the Riverbanks center. Metro Manila's newest and most
unique shopping and educational entertainment complex on A.
Bonifacio Avenue in Makati City.
The framed petals, where biblical images of the Virgin Mary can be seen, have
been magnified 100 times to fully show the miraculous work of God, according
to the Mama Mary's Movement. The Riverbanks Development Corp. (RDC) is
co-presenting the exhibit up to May 31.
The exhibit tops this month's lineup of special events, which include a variety
show titled "Hataw sa Riverbanks" featuring the newest TV and movie
personalities. The show will be staged at 7 p.m. today (May 8).
Slated tomorrow (May 9) at the Riverbanks is a "Mother's Day Special" which

The free blood pressure checkup will be conducted by the Philippine National
Red Cross for shoppers from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. and the cooking demo by
Chowking Food Corp., for mothers who want to learn new and exciting
recipes.
