Ayala Museum is offering exclusive access to its virtual events which serve as fundraisers to provide students online connectivity allowance for a year. Each purchase of a virtual pass to the event is equal to a donation to Ayala Foundation’s Student Online Access Program for Junior High and College students. The museum’s ‘Get Access, Give Access’ fund drive aims to help Filipino learners “bridge the digital divide” as they pursue their studies through distance learning as the Philippines’ Department of Education (DepEd) opted for the remote learning approach this school year to keep children safe amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Donor-participants in the virtual events gain admission to the following Ayala Museum’s virtual banner events: History Comes Alive with Ambeth R. Ocampo September 18 and October 2, 2020 Zoom Renowned historian Ambeth R. Ocampo is taking his long-running lecture series online. Ocampo will be talking about two core topics that have defined the year: the pandemic and fake news. The Rush Hour Concert with the Manila Symphony Orchestra November 2020 Ayala Museum brings the Manila Symphony Orchestra (MSO) concert to a virtual platform for the first time.
