Special Tour for Friends of the Crow Collection
July 16
In tandem with each exhibition of Texas Collects Asia, the Crow Collection invites you to join us for a series of lectures and conversations with curators and collectors illuminating those who helped us realize this important initiative. There is a "collecting spirit" within each of the collectors who have so generously shared their treasures with this exhibition. Brought together for the first time, discover how these Texans developed their own passion for the Arts of Asia, and hear from the curators who selected their works for these landmark exhibitions.
$150 per person includes travel by coach to and from Austin, lunch, admission fees for docent-guided tours, and gratuities. Space is limited. Reservations required. Please call 214-979-6436 to register.
