Curated by Tess Rayos Del Sol, director of ManilART Fair and Galerie du Soleil MNL, “Unified Spectrums” runs until Oct. 30.

The timing also offers a closer look at the Legislative Museum itself, which only opened in February. Its permanent galleries trace the House’s history through historical documents, artifacts, and a timeline of House Speakers.

“Unified Spectrums” is part of this year’s Museums and Galleries Month, themed “Bridging Divides: Preserving the Present for Tomorrow.”

Entrance to the Legislative Museum is free. It is open Monday to Thursday, 9 AM to 4 PM, with guests required to present a valid government ID and undergo security checks at the Batasang Pambansa Complex.
