The Yuchengco Museum initially opened its doors to the public in September 2005. Its aims foster a greater public appreciation of art by housing the finest international as well as local, cultural, historical, and design exhibits and programs. The museum was initially built as the home of the art collection of Ambassador Alfonso T. Yuchengco which he has collected throughout his career as a statesman, philanthropist, and patron of the arts but has since grown to include other galleries and traveling exhibits.
The Yuchengco Museum is at RCBC Plaza, Ayala corner Sen. Gil J. Puyat Avenues, Makati City. It is open from Monday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information, visit Yuchengco Museum's website.
