About Cultural Bridges With AARP
Programs at a Glance
Through a partnership with AARP, Asia Society Texas provides multiple entry points for communities to learn more about Asian cultures, traditions, and talents. Asia Society's holistic programming both educates and entertains by creating thought-provoking experiences of the highest quality from a variety of countries, cultures, points of view, and art forms. Through presenting content that is relevant to our community and the context of current events, AST's goal is for audiences to leave our programming with their curiosity piqued, inspiring ongoing reflection and investigation of not only diverse cultures, but also our shared humanity. In our increasingly globalized society, having access to diverse communities and perspectives has never been more important.
In this third series, Asia Society Texas is hosting seven (7) educational events taking place between May 2024 and January 2025, available to AARP members and others (as space is available). The listed virtual and in-person events connect to AARP's local priorities of health and cultural understanding. Classes are open to Asia Society Texas audiences as well as AARP members.
The Cultural Bridges series at Asia Society Texas is presented by AARP. Education and Outreach programs at Asia Society Texas are presented by AARP. Generous funding also provided by Asia Chemical Corporation, and Mitsubishi Corporation (Americas). Free Thursday exhibition admission presented by Regions Bank. Additional support is provided by Cathay Bank Foundation, the George and Mary Josephine Hamman Foundation, and the Friends of Asia Society, a dedicated group of individuals and organizations committed to bringing exceptional programming and exhibitions to Asia Society Texas.
