Sackler Gallery—and has become a bastion of preserving, exhibiting, and interpreting Asian art, with an over 40,000 object collection dating from the Neolithic period through today. Marking the century since its founding, the museum has organized a dynamic year-long centennial celebration, featuring special exhibitions, new permanent exhibitions, refurbishment of existing galleries, and an extensive schedule of programming—including music series, events, and more.
