Asia Week New York Association

Asia Week New York Association Asia Week New York's mission is to affirm the importance of Asian art in the citywide—and nationwide—cultural landscape.

Every year in March and September, international Asian art specialists, major auction houses, world-renowned museums and Asian cultural institutions collaborate to present nine days of exhibitions, auctions, opening parties, lectures, educational programming and special events. The initiative brings in an entire community of collectors, curators and enthusiasts to New York City.
