Held from November 8 to November 11, 2018, VIVA EXCON CAPIZ 2018 has a multi-site exhibition across the Roxas City, Capiz, particuarly activating six main venues. Isayan and Filipino artists, and international cultural practitioners gathered under the curatorial theme "Don't even bring water (Bisan tubig di magbalon)," a line from the Visayan folk ballad Dandansoy, the exhibitions focus on the aspiration of returning to one's roots. 

Along with the artworks, the 3-day conference at the Gerry Roxas Training and Convention Centerwill also surveys various issues and discern concrete prospectives for VIVA EXCON.
