About Sabado sa Museo

To welcome new audiences to the National Museum on Saturdays, the MFPI Sabado sa Museo lecture series will help us make sense of the past and connect the collections with our lives. Engaging speakers will highlight little-known facts in anthropology, archaeology, arts, botany, geology, zoology, and space (using the Manila Planetarium). Sabado sa Museo is held in the Museum Foundation of the Philippines Hall at the National Gallery of Art (2nd floor of the former Legislative Building) on P. Burgos street, Metro Manila.

Museum Foundation of the Philippines

The Museum Foundation of the Philippines brings 32 years of some of the most progressive cultural heritage work of this century. From its initial advocacy is now a reality with the renovation of three landmark buildings that housed the National Museum of Fine Arts, the National Museum of Anthropology, and the National Museum of Natural History. Its mandate and work continues with the Museum Foundation of the Philippines Hall at the National Museum that provides a home for an important work of a National Artist, to acquisitions of an important collection for a museum, to the restoration of an important masterpiece, to regular lectures, grants, and tours, and its annual MaARTe fair that showcase the best in Philippine contemporary arts and crafts, and other special projects. Be a part of these important breakthroughs and be our partner to more exciting cultural heritage work!
