MAKATI CITY — Visitors looking for a more intimate cultural experience in Makati can explore “Begin Again: The Art of Later,” an ongoing exhibition at the Museo ng Makati featuring works by the Tuesday at Two: SanLo Seniors Art Group. The exhibition runs until September 24, 2026, offering tourists and residents an opportunity to discover a different side of the city beyond its shopping centers, offices, and modern skyline. The featured artists are senior residents of San Lorenzo Village who have been meeting every Tuesday since 2023 to practice drawing and experiment with different artistic mediums. Their regular gatherings have evolved into a creative journey that celebrates learning, self-expression, and the freedom to discover art at any stage of life.
A Creative Journey Beyond Age
The exhibition's appeal lies not only in the artworks but also in the stories behind their creation. Many of the participating artists began exploring art later in life, transforming their weekly sessions into an ongoing experience of experimentation and discovery. Their works showcase their developing approaches to color, form, and drawing, reflecting how their artistic perspectives have grown over time. Rather than focusing solely on technical skill, the collection highlights the enjoyment of creating and the idea that curiosity and creativity can continue to flourish at any age. Held within the historic setting of the Museo ng Makati, the exhibition provides visitors with a personal look into the city's community-based art scene.
A Cultural Stop in the Heart of Poblacion
Located along J.P. Rizal Street in Poblacion, the Museo ng Makati is situated near several heritage attractions, local cafés, and historic houses. Visitors can combine their museum trip with a leisurely walk around the surrounding streets for a broader cultural experience. Admission to “Begin Again: The Art of Later” is free, giving both tourists and locals an accessible way to experience Makati's creative heritage. With the exhibition scheduled to run only until September 24, it offers visitors a timely opportunity to discover the artistic talents and inspiring stories of the SanLo Seniors Art Group.
