ANNUAL BOOK SALE

Book lovers, mark your calendars: thousands of books — including rare collector's items — will be available at bargain prices at the Society for Asian Art’s annual Book Sale in the museum loggia. This year’s special four-day event includes both a Thursday night, when the museum remains open until 8 PM, and a Free First Sunday, when admission is free for all.

Browse desirable volumes on Asian art (from catalogs from past exhibitions at the museum to out-of-print gems like He Li’s guide to Chinese ceramics), as well as unique publications on history, literature, religion, culture, cooking, novels, travel, textiles, jewelry, and more!

Besides adding a new treasure to your coffee table or library, your book purchase will benefit the museum's C. Laan Chun Library. To date, the Society for Asian Art Book Sale has raised more than $120,000 for the museum library, one of the most comprehensive research libraries on Asian art and culture in the country. n
