The Cordillera Cultural Ensemble
Embedded Files
CCE is a community of Igorots or Cordillerans residing in New York and the surrounding states, proudly representing the diverse provinces of ABRA, APAYAO, BAGUIO, BENGUET, IFUGAO, KALINGA, and MOUNTAIN PROVINCE in the Philippines of the Cordillera region. Our mission is to honor and preserve our indigenous heritage, culture, and history, which we consider as precious gifts worthy of passing to the next generations. We are guided by our sacred principle to promote better relationships, unity, and cooperation amongst each member and with other organizations in the region. We endeavor to support our objectives through social and charitable work by partnering and collaborating with other government and non-government institutions in NY and the nearby states.
The CORDILLERA CULTURAL ENSEMBLE is an independent group dedicated to promoting the Igorot cultural heritage and history through ethnic dances and songs in our traditional native attire, celebrating courtship, kinship, and friendship, social gatherings, and festivities.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
CCE acknowledges the land politically designated as New York City to be the homeland of the Lenape (Lenapehoking) who were violently displaced as a result of European settler colonialism over the course of 400 years. The Lenape are a diasporic people that remain closely connected with this land and are its rightful stewards. We also recognize that New York City has one of the largest urban Native American / Indigenous populations in the United States.
The Ally Artists Group is committed to forging a new trajectory for our organization by building sustainable relationships with Lenape and other Native American and Indigenous peoples. We are actively engaging Native American and Indigenous leaders as equal partners in collaboration, fostering a space that prioritizes their voices to direct our services in ways that best serve citizens of these nations and members of these communities.
Special Thanks to the Little Manila Park for allowing us to rehearse and explore our indigenous dances and songs.
