Silab Artreach began in 2005 when Teacher Nick Calma felt the need to reach out to home-schooled children, street children, cancer-stricken youth and kids with special needs through art. His passion for creativity started during his teens. As a Fine Arts student from FEATI, Teacher Nick underwent training with Ibarra dela Rosa, the late painter/professor in Fine Arts at FEATI and Women's University.

My daughter Clarissa has been blessed by Teacher Nick as a lifetime scholar of Silab. He instantly detected Clarissa's special gift in 2010 and has helped her hone this talent since then. Teacher Nick and Clarissa made a few art pieces together which is now part of his personal collection.
