Aquino Center reopens after two years with new exhibits on family legacy
The Aquino Center and Museum in Hacienda Luisita, Tarlac, reopened on February 24th, a day before the anniversary of the EDSA People Power Revolution, after two years of renovations.
During the reopening event, Senator Bam Aquino led a guided tour for youth and online influencers to highlight the museum’s new exhibits dedicated to his family's legacy.
The museum now includes detailed displays about the lives and political careers of his parents, Ninoy and Cory Aquino, as well as his own presidency in 2010.
Francis Dee, executive director of the Ninoy and Cory Aquino Foundation (NCAF) and grandson of Ninoy and Cory Aquino, expressed sadness over how the family's name has been tarnished by online trolls since the previous administrations.
The museum aims to restore the Aquino family’s legacy in fighting for democracy while also showcasing their personal lives.
