Madamo gid nga salamat NHCP Emilio Aguinaldo Shrine.
It was great privilege to have collaborated with you with the Project K*K.

A warm embrace as you gracefully retire from government service, Ma'am Irene.

Ms. Irene Magallon, Tourism Officer and Head of the Santa Barbara Centennial Museum, was instrumental in the success of Project K*K: Kapatirang Katuwang sa Kultura in 2022 — a partnership between the NHCP and the Local Government Unit of Santa Barbara, Iloilo.

The Aguinaldo Shrine had the privilege of serving as the sister museum of the Santa Barbara Centennial Museum during its redevelopment. Project K*K sought to engage and empower the community in shaping the museum’s narrative. Through her dedication and leadership, the project became a meaningful example of collaboration in heritage and cultural work.

It was a privilege working with such a dedicated cultural worker and advocate for local history and heritage.

Padayon, Ma’am Irene. May your retirement be as meaningful and inspiring as the years of service you have devoted to the Filipino people.

Some gifts are chosen for ourselves, but for a purpose greater than our own.

These sacred vestments generously donated by the Society of St Paul -Iloilo community, now find a home - at the Centennial Museum.

May they continue to tell the story of faith, service and quiet generosity of those who preserve our church’s living heritage.

For Dr. Eric B. Zerrudo, Chairperson of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), preserving Filipino culture is not simply about remembering the past—it is about ensuring that future generations remain connected to their heritage and identity.

He emphasized the importance of creating opportunities for overseas Filipinos to experience, learn, and engage with Philippine culture through programs, cultural exchanges, and heritage initiatives that strengthen their connection to the homeland.

As Filipino communities continue to grow across the globe, cultural preservation remains a shared responsibility in keeping the nation's stories, traditions, and values alive for generations to come.
