The Manila Bulletin Hatch Exhibit at the UST Museum

26 September 2019

We are always on the lookout for new exhibits to go to and when we learned about the new Hatch Exhibit from Manila Bulletin is now being showcased at the UST Museum, Dylan and I decided to check it out.

The Hatch Exhibit consists of 100 acrylic eggs that served as the medium for Filipino artists to express their exceptional talent.  It will run until October 12, 2019. 

Free Admission to the National Museum: Part 2 - Museum of Anthropology

05 May 2016

This post is the 2nd part in the "Free Admission to the National Museum" adventure that the kids and I had.  The first part can be seen here.  The focus of this post is the Museum of Anthropology, also known as the Museum of the Filipino People.  It is located at the old Department of Finance Building in Rizal Park and may be considered as an extension of the National Museum.  It contains anthropological and archaeological artifacts about our Filipino heritage.

Free Admission to the National Museum: Part 1 - The National Art Gallery

05 May 2016


I've always wanted to revisit the National Museum with my kids.  I used to be able to visit it when I worked at the Senate since at one point, it was where the Upper House held their sessions and I'd go around at idle moments.  For the month of May, since it's National Heritage Month, the National Museum has offered "Free Admission" which made it a good time for an educational/cultural trip.  The "Free Admission" allows you to enter the National Museum (the National Art Gallery),  the Museum of the Filipino People (old Department of Finance Building) and the National Planetarium and all other regional museums in the country.  The National Museum is located at P. Burgos Drive, Rizal Park, Manila.

Went to the "Art for Everyone" exhibit at the SM Megamall

27 February 2016

After attending the Nihongo Fiesta 2016 and seeing Joe Inoue live in Manila (here's the post), Dana, Dylan and I went to SM Megamall for the "Art for Everyone" exhibit.  Dana remarked that it was weird that we just visited a Japanese anime event and now we're headed to a contemporary art exhibit.  The exhibit features several diverse pieces from local contemporary artists using a variety of media and subjects.  It's free and open to the public until February 28 and will have other ongoing exhibits at SM City North EDSA, SM Aura, SM Southmall, SM Cebu and SM Lanang.
