What to know about the free entrance day at the Yuchengco Museum in Makati:
As if taking a cue from the Ayala Museum which recently announced their own free museum day, the Yuchengco Museum is opening its doors to the general public for free on April 27, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.— just in time for Ayala Car Free Sundays.
Bring the gang, the fam or your S.O. and have an art-filled day perusing Ambassador Alfonso Yuchengco's collection of art and historical artifacts. There are also a bunch of temporary exhibitions on display like the Architecture and Urban Visions: The Power of the Imagined that spotlights unbuilt works by visionary Filipino architects, Denise Weldon's photography exhibit about the stillness of life and the mundane called Witness of the Quiet.
Prior registration is no longer required to enter the museum, so you can be as spontaneous as you want for this activity. Just enter through the RCBC Courtyard along Ayala Avenue and bask in art and culture after your Sunday run.
Heading somewhere else this weekend? Don't worry! The Yuchengco Museum is also open on other Mondays to Saturdays, just with entrance fees.
Here are the regular rates to visit the Yuchengco Museum:
- Adults: P200
- Students, PWDs, Senior Citizens: P100 (please show a valid ID as proof)
The Yuchengco Museum opened to the public in September 2005. Inside the museum are a collection of international, local, cultural, historical, and design exhibits and programs displayed to make the public appreciate arts and culture more.
The museum was initially built to house Ambassador Alfonso T. Yuchengco's art collection, which he has collected throughout his career as a statesman, philanthropist, and patron of the arts. However, it has since grown to include other galleries and traveling exhibits.
