Mr. JEREMY BARNES

CESO-III, Director General
National Museum of the Philippines
Padre Burgo Ave, Ermita Manila

Good day!

I am Roland Go. I am a doctor by profession and although I am in the medical field, I have a
deep love and appreciation for the arts.

Four years ago, I started an Arts Page on instagram called ARTSGEEKMANILA where I feature
Filipino artists.

We have managed to grow our small community of Art-lovers from a little less than 100
followers to 11,000 plus followers as of this writing. We have featured works by Fernando
Amorsolo, Botong Francisco, And Kiukok, BenCab etc. Recently, we featured a couple of works
by Sir Justin Nuyda.

This 2022, we are celebrating our 4th year anniversary, and as part of our celebration, we would
like to feature the National Museum of the Philippines.

As such, we would like to request for the permission of your good office to allow us to take
videos and photos inside the National Museum of the Philippines with the intention of featuring
these materials on our arts page, on any dates during the weekends of this month of February.

With the restrain of the pandemic, we hope to use our platform to bring the Filipino people from
all walks of life closer to the country’s art and heritage.

We hope to hear a positive response from you.

Sincerely,

Roland Philip C. Go, MD
