The Patuyaw Festival

The patuyaw, a fresh water shrimp which thrives abundantly in the streams, river, brooks and creeks in the Municipality  and is a good source of nutrition and living of the people, symbolizes the abundance of the nature which sustains life for the Sebastehanon and the precarious relationship between the people nad the environment.

Patuyaw specially weaves a strand on the culture and the way of life of the Sebastehanon who have been dependent on the bounty of the water.
