A wonderful gem in Makati waiting to be enjoyed. Their permanent collections are exquisite, and the Rizal section is a treasure trove of fascinating stories and insights. Thecongoing shows of Steve de Leon, Joel Wijangco, and George Tapan are fascinating, breathtaking and inspiring. I hope the museum's shows get better publicity. They are not to be missed.

The small fine arts collection of historial local artists is very good!

These areas focus on the Yu...

The place was really good! It was cold inside and the museum was not crowded, which we really enjoyed so much as we had the time to take pictures. The place displayed cool artworks and features film and history of Mapua. We availed the student discount which costs ₱100. It was a really great place to stop by if you want to spontaneously visit a museum nearby ayala.
