Mga bisita!
So many visitors! As many have said, young and older, Letizia’s voice speaks to many generations. We agree. The other day we welcomed former and current officers of GIZ, and we certainly hope they had a lovely time! GIZ stands for “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit” which is a mouthful. We hope they’ll be back, with friends and family. If you’ve been to the exhibit, do share your photos. There’s always something new to learn from the past. Make history usable! Thank you to Nonie Reyes for the beautiful image! #LetiziaLifeInLetters [READ]

“In my diary book of quotes, I wrote on the Nov. 17 page: ‘The great use of a life is to spend it for something that outlasts it.’” Letizia Roxas Constantino—passionate nationalist, inspiring teacher, relentless chronicler, and loving wife, mother, and grandmother—wrote those words on a sheet of Stradmore stationery not knowing that she was attesting to her own life.
That letter is just one of many on display for Letizia: A Life in Letters, an immersive exhibit of Letizia’s remarkable life, as told through her letters, photos, diary entries, recipes, mementoes, to-do lists, and audio recordings of her piano playing. Taking it all in, one thought persists: Surely these were accomplished by multiple people. No one person can do all that in just one lifetime.
Except Letizia did do all that, and more.

“It is an exhibit that honors the nationalist, the historian, the writer, the generational Filipina that she was. No burloloy, only consition, only substance and something that Letizia embodies, elegance,” he said.
“The exhibit represents a sliver of a fingernail of letters, manuscripts, and other artifacts that she [READ]
