In 2024, Asia Society New York welcomed global leaders and diplomats, acclaimed performers, Oscar-winning filmmakers, renowned musicians, best-selling authors, and highly accomplished individuals in their fields for conversations, performances, film screenings, exhibition openings, and more illuminating events.
