Activity in line with 4Ps ✔ Profession Professional Professional Organization ✔ Professional Product

UAP Makati was given a special access guided tour in the National Museum of Natural History (NMNH). The tour was

spearheaded by UAP Makati Chapter President Miko Carandang.

UAP Makati opened the event to other chapters to have more participants. Other chapters who participate are Fort

Bonifacio, Manila Atelier, Manila Alcadia and Shanghai Chapter. Other noteworthy architects who participated are

Ar. Dante Aguirre of QC chapter, Ar. Becca Rellosa of QC Diliman and Ar. Joel Rivas of Makati Greenbelt Chapter.

The tour guide is Ar. Nelson Aquino of the NMNH. He showed us the features of the Museum including the famous

Tree of Life at the center of the structure. He showed us also some of the artifacts that will be displayed in the

museum like the giant sperm whale that was discovered in Mindoro and Lolong which is the largest crocodile in

captivity.

Of course, the highlight of the tour is the structure itself. The building now occupied by the museum was built as an

Agriculture and Commerce building in 1940. It was a neoclassical building that was designed by Filipino Architect

Antonio Toledo in the late 1930s. It was left ruins after the liberation in Manila during WWII and later reconstructed

according to its original plan and design. The building was also occupied by Department of Tourism and became the

Department of Tourism Building.

Now, the building is an example of Adaptive Reused. Designed by Ar. Dominic Galicia, a member of UAP Makati, it

features 12 galleries (some are still ongoing construction) of natural wonders and treasures dedicated to our

country’s rich flora and fauna. The special feature of this building is the Tree of Life.

The museum will be open to public on April 2018.

UAP Makati is very thankful to have a special access in the structure.

There was no box office line were members need to fill up the registration form. The registration starts at 6:00 PM. The event was star studded. Lots of national officers of UAP attended the event including Ar. Benjamin Panganiban Jr. (UAP National Exec. Vice President), Ar. Reynaldo Acosta (National – Area VP) Ar. Rebecca Rellosa (National – Awards), Ar. Dante Aguirre (National – Ways and Means), Ar. Vanessa Ledesma (National – membership), Ar. Jose Ricky L. Martinez (National – Green Architecture, Past Pres.

UAP Makati showed the chapter’s program from July 2017 to Nov. 2017 and then unleashed a lot of future projects that night including the CSR projects in partnership with MMDA, CSR Project with UAP Lipa Chapter, CSR at Bahay ni Maria in Makati, the V. Luna project, future CPD’s in collaboration with AIDEA and many more. That night, UAP Makati gave a special recognition award to the selected notable architects in our country like Ar. Zaragoza, Ar. Nakpil, Ar. Abelardo Tolentino, Jr., Ar. Lindy Locsin and many more. That night, UAP Makati received an award from UAP National. The award is about the UAP Makati’s contribution in “Buklod”. It is a CSR project spearheaded by the UAP National. It was also a special night for the new members because their induction night is also the 40th founding anniversary of the chapter. There are a total of 38 inductees in the event. The intermission part is also special. UAP Makati commissioned the Alab Poi dancer to impress the guests and all participants by their unwavering talent. Alab Poi dancers are group of artists specialized in dancing using fire and neon lights. They are the first ever grand champions of “Todo Bigay” contest of “It’s Showtime”. All in all, the event was successful but there are still room for improvement. All of the guests are satisfied with the service. The planning and outcome is great. The food was great. The 40th anniversary cake was great. Inthis regard, UAP Makati would like to thank all of the sponsors of the event and the members who keep on supporting the UAP Makati. This is all for you!
