Come join our Circle of Friends at the Rubin Museum of Art, a treasure of architecture in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, to celebrate the accomplishments of the Manjushree Orphanage and Free School in Tawang, India -- and to help fund a planned Academic Center. An optimal learning environment will foster academic success and enable these disadvantaged children to flourish.
WHEN: Tuesday, May 25, 6pm to 9pm
WHERE: Rubin Museum of Art (150 West 17th Street, between 6th and 7th Avenues)
WHAT: A Gala Reception with open bar. Vikas Khanna's famously tasty hors d'oeuvres. A Silent Auction (starting at 6pm sharp) with unique offerings from the travel, culinary and fashion industries. A special musical performance by Tibetan singer Yungchen Lhamo. Exclusive guided tours of the Rubin Museum galleries. And a presentation of the impressive building project designed for the children of Manjushree Orphanage. An all around incredible experience -- all in the service of a noble cause.
To date, Robert Thurman, noted Buddhist scholar; Lobsang Nyandak, representative to His Holiness the Dalai Lama; and Dr. Tatsumura Hillyer of Tibet House are scheduled to speak.
