Join us for a special tour of Spirit House – a thrilling yet thought provoking special exhibition that features 33 Asian-American and Asian diaspora artists. These works explore the boundary between life and death by asking questions like what does it mean to inhabit haunted spaces, speak to ghosts and enter different dimensions.


This fascinating exhibition tour will be led by Aleesa Pitchamarn Alexander, the Robert M. And Ruth L. Halperin Associate Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art and Co-Director of the Asian American Art Initiative (AAAI) at the Cantor Arts Center, who curated this exhibition.

This tour is limited to 20 Society for Asian Art members.



Following the tour, you may opt to view more art or have lunch in the museum’s café.
