Filipino-American Development Foundation with grant support from the Creative Work Fund, commissioned Master Philippine Dance Choreographer, Sydney Loyola with ...composer Joshua Icban, to create Sayaw Sa Ilaw / Dancing in the Light Project. Plans were in place for a live dance performance at the 18th annual Parol Lantern Festival by participants of the dance workshops held in 2020. Due to Covid-19 health directives, the project was forced to go virtual. Loyola led 56 local and international Philippine folkloric dancers and created Sayaw Sa Ilaw / Dancing in the Light video.
