 UNICEF Philippines ushers in the start of the Christmas season with the joyful art of Pinoy folk artist Manuel “Manny” Baldemor—this year’s featured artist for UNICEF Christmas Cards. 

A Filipino artist from Paete, Laguna, Manny Baldemor is renowned for his paintings, wood prints, and wood carvings featuring simplified geometric forms and folk art characters. He would often depict his hometown, its people, their daily activities, and traditions in his art. Baldemor participated in various national and international art exhibitions and received numerous prestigious awards. 


Having been a part of the UNICEF Cards roster of renowned artists since the 1990s, his works have been reproduced and sold in countries around the world for almost two decades.


The 2024 limited-edition UNICEF Cards feature four artworks from Baldemor’s vast collection: Pasko sa Aming Bayan (1992), Christmas Lanterns Festival (2006), Graces from the Land (2008), and Pasko ng Pamilya Pilipino (2024).


“My dream is for all children to be healthy and happy because they are our hope, our future. I am happy to contribute my time and talent to support UNICEF’s programs for children and I am very proud and honored to be a UNICEF artist,” says Manny Baldemor.


“It was a natural decision to have Manuel Baldemor as our contributing artist for UNICEF Christmas Cards. His passion for sharing the joyful spirit of Filipino values and culture is apparent in every piece he makes. By donating through these cards, you not only get to own a piece of Baldemor’s art, you are also supporting lifesaving programs for the most vulnerable children,” shares Carli Snyman, Chief of Fundraising and Partnerships, UNICEF Philippines.
