Museum café fuels fine arts scholarship grants
Business World Philippines
|July 23, 2025
IN the 1940s, Juvenal Sansó was a struggling artist and reliant on a stipend for his art education in Paris.

In honor of the renowned artist's early experience, the private, nonprofit institution Fundacion Sansó will be supporting young artists through delicious pastries, coffee, and tea served in a museum café in San Juan City.
The café, called Scholarsip, opened at the expanded wing of Fundacion Sansó last week. An extension of the museum shop, it will add funds to the foundation's scholarship and grants program. Through the years, 31 students from Bulacan State University have received scholarships while students from the University of the Philippines Diliman and Far Eastern University have received thesis grants.
The café’s food and beverage partners are Yardstick Coffee for the coffee, Tsaa Laya for the tea, Purple Yam for the pastries, chef Kim Tatel for the savories, and Theo & Philo for the chocolates.

Redeeming the Philippines

It was the people proclaiming, with unmistakable clarity: the Republic does not belong to politicians, contractors, and their accomplices.
