Banner of an exhibit at the Asia Society

 

This an exhibit banner hanging in front of the Asia Society, an organization that provides information and education on over 30 Asian countries.  Founded in 1956 by a Rockefeller family member, the Asia Society provides art exhibits, performances, films, lectures, seminars, conferences, publications, media assistance and school material to the public.  

There are several centers worldwide but the headquarters is located here in NYC.  If you visit their museum gallery, you can enjoy their nice Garden Court Café, too.

Happy Monday, all!

    Love the pic with the trees - a very Japanese motif. All you needed were a few cherry blossoms :)
