Join Asia Society Texas to celebrate the opening of our new exhibition Space City: Art in the Age of Artemis. Through the works of over 30 contemporary artists, the show explores the mysteries and wonders of outer space and invites visitors to embark on an imaginative journey through the cosmos. As NASA aims to return to the Moon, and in the city where that journey began, this exhibition surveys how artists today are investigating some of the most profound questions about the universe.
Enjoy refreshments at our reception in our Education Center and be the first to see Space City: Age in the Art of Artemis. Please RSVP for this free event.
