Receiving of Application

Last 27 May, the National Museum of the Philippines accepted a generous donation of five LG Objet Posé 55-inch OLED television units from LG Global.

In a speech by NMP Director-General Jeremy Barns, he emphasized that this significant donation is a step forward in adapting our museums to a rapidly-digitizing world. “LG’s donation is really important to us, because not only does it help us see our artworks more clearly, but it also helps modernize our public programs and provide better services to our stakeholders,” DG Barns remarked.

Also present at the turnover event were LG Philippines Managing Director Mr. Nakhyun Seong and Product Director Mr. Yongwoo Park, as well as influencers Drew Arellano, Bianca Yao, and Mikee Reyes.

Back in 2018, LG Philippines also made a donation of three top-of-the-line televisions to the NMP, which aided in the conduct of the Museum’s public programs and educational activities in Manila and in the Regional Component Museums across the country.

These donations, as well as the support given to other cultural and artistic organizations nationwide, are a testament to LG Philippines’ longstanding commitment to empowering the creative industries and heritage preservation initiatives across the Philippines.

On behalf of the Filipino people, the National Museum of the Philippines looks forward to nurturing this valuable partnership and expresses its paramount gratitude to LG Philippines for these gifts to the nation.
