As part of its activities to support creators across the globe, Celsys sponsors events in various countries. On this page, we introduce examples of sponsorships for events held in the Philippines.
In July 2025, Celsys sponsored “Patrons of the Arts 2025”, a major art event held in the Philippine capital, Manila. At the event, exhibiting artists were provided licenses for Clip Studio Paint, and Ivy, the Philippine-based creator of the webcomic “Little Things PH”, held a live drawing using Clip Studio Paint.

Event attendees commented, “I never knew that Clip Studio Paint had all these comic features. Every time I use or hear about the app, I learn something new.”
Clip Studio Paint’s involvement in the event was well received.
Patrons of the Arts is an art event with the goal to create an art market that connects artists and art lovers. It supports artists aspiring to become professionals, connects industry partners such as software and hardware manufacturers and art schools, and provides opportunities for art sales. In past years, the event has featured artist alleys, workshops, and talk sessions. In 2025, more than 450 artists exhibited at booths.

In February 2025, Celsys sponsored “ELBIKON 2025” held by a University of the Philippines Los Banos student organization. At the event, artist alley exhibitors and contest winners were presented with Clip Studio Paint. Additionally, there were demonstration videos and a live drawing talk show led by the college students, allowing attendees to learn about the digital art process.
ELBIKON is a comic convention organized by The Graphic Literature Guild, a student organization for artists, writers, and comic enthusiasts based at the University of the Philippines Los Baños. With 3,800 visitors in 2025, the event is large for being student-run and is expected to continue growing in the years to come.
Aside from the exhibition and sale of works by over 100 artists, the event featured a variety of programs, including panel discussions with comic book authors and other guest speakers, a comic contest, a quiz competition, and cosplay.
