Cover of the museum guidebook The Diorama Experience of Philippine History, published by the Ayala Museum written by historians Ambeth Ocampo and Felice Noelle Rodriguez, and anthropologist Jesus Peralta. On the cover is the detail of likely the 34th of the 60 dioramas in the museum, "The Revolution Against Spain Begins, Manila, 1896," with text found on page 49:

At Balintawak, the Katipunan Code, which had been deciphered by the Spanish authorities, was changed. From the the Katipuneros moved to Barrio Kangkong and eventually, to Barrio Pugadlawin. At Pugadlawin, Bonifacio asked his men whether they were prepared to fight to the end. They all responded in the affirmative. Bonifacio then urged everyone to tear up his or her tax certificate (the infamous cedula personal), a symbolic gesture signifying the end of servitude to Spain. They did so amidst cries of "Long Live the Philippines! Long live the Katipunan."

The Facebook page of the NHCP Museums announced this August 23 marks the 122nd anniversary of the Cry of Pugadlawin, and invited subscribers to visit the Museo ng Katipunan in Pinaglabanan, San Juan City. liwaliw Pages this August joins in the observance of National History Month per Proclamation No. 339, signed by former President Benigno S. Aquino III in 2012.
