The Cincinnati Asian Art Society sponsors monthly programs, generally from September through May.
On Sunday November 12, 2023 our Eighth Annual Asian Art Lecture will take us to South India. Dr. Padma Kaimal will connect the spiritual traditions and practices of the great Kailasanatha Temple with the incredible artworks throughout the temple. We’ll learn about centuries of spiritual practices that are still vibrant today. Come see and learn that not all great art is on museum walls. Please see the flyer for more information. NOTE: The program will be at the Taft Museum of Art.
