About this event

Via Zoom
Across Asia: Face of the Divine
With the Walters Museum 
Monday, May 5, 3:00-4:00 pm
Open to Everyone


Objects of devotion, especially those featuring deities, holy individuals, and sacred spaces, have touched the heights of human artistic achievement. Explore the ways that different cultures and spiritual traditions across Asia have given form and shape to beings beyond earthly experience. This virtual tour will include artwork from the Walters Museum's landmark installation opened in 2023, entitled Across Asia: Arts of Asia and the Islamic World. This installation highlights the connections among art, cultures, religions, and ideas across the vast geography of Asia and includes examples of architecture, calligraphy, ceramics, cloisonné, enamelwork, lacquerware, manuscripts, metalwork, painting, sculpture, and textiles.

This virtual tour is open to everyone as part of our collaboration with Little Falls Village. Register online. FHNN members or volunteers who need help registering can emailinformation.fhnn@gmail.com with Across Asia in the subject line.
