Designed by Camille Balistoy and Jericho Pagana, executed by the Production Design and Technical Services Division under the Production and Exhibition Department, the façade lighting is the leading art institution’s way of recognizing the Filipino women’s contribution to nation-building and putting the spotlight on their accomplishments.
