The official inauguration of the Museum-Library turnover to the local government unit of Baliuag was held on August 9, 1998. The event was graced by Bulacan Governor Josefina M. Dela Cruz, Gemma Cruz-Araneta, and members of the Baliwag Tourism Council.
The renovated building was officially accepted by Mayor Rolando Salvador as part of the municipal government’s property. The inauguration event was a lively celebration, featuring traditional performances such as the “”Buntal Hat Dance”” and “”Sayaw sa Nayon,”” which showcased the rich cultural heritage of the community.
Notable attendees included Rustan’s Justa Tantoco, former Bulacan Vice Governor Willie Villarama, his wife Tesie Villarama, and prominent Baliwag business mogul Antonio Cabangon Chua, all of whom contributed to the vibrant atmosphere of the occasion. The gathering underscored both the significance of the building’s renovation and the strong support from local leaders and community members.
