Diorama of the Battle of Mactan
The Diorama of the Battle of Mactan is a project to illustrate the real events of the battle in the educational format of what happened between the forces of Magellan and Lapu-Lapu on April 27, 1521. Both antagonists in this 16th-century drama have been long misunderstood by our fellow countrymen because of the long-standing biases, sometimes disinterest in historical narratives and mostly from lack of true, historically accurate books.

Rehabilitation of Diorama of the Battle of Mactan
Since 2021, the diorama has been in-storage due to the COVID-19 pandemic despite being displayed in exhibitions. We are planning to reassemble for future exhibitions but we need to restore and repair damages on the 3D figures. Support our funding for the rehabilitation!
