From May 1 to May 14, 2023, the National Museum of Asian Art marks its centennial by hosting the inaugural Asian Pacific American Heritage Month Festival. The museum and its surroundings on the National Mall will celebrate Asian arts and cultures with keynote speakers, headline performers, interactive experiences, culinary adventures and community projects.

This cornerstone of the centennial programming is the first such major festival celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month organized by the museum.

The Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art is committed to preserving, exhibiting, researching and interpreting art in ways that deepen our collective understanding of Asia and the world. Home to more than 45,000 objects, the museum stewards one of North America’s largest and most comprehensive collections of Asian art, with works dating from antiquity to the present from China, Japan, Korea, South Asia, Southeast Asia and the Islamic world.

Below is a full schedule of events for the Asian Pacific American Heritage Month Festival with dates, times and locations. All events are free and open to the public. The headliner concerts on May 13 require advance ticket for admission into the Arts & Industries building.

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop, In celebration of the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop, and the misogyny that too often was present throughout the movement’s formative years, a mural is being painted in @explorestlouis on Washington Ave across from @wallsoffwashington with 50 artists highlighting 50 female Hip Hop figures. Here’s a taste.
At the same time, @stlartmuseum debuts “The Culture: Hip Hop and Contemporary Art,” a look at the intersection of Hip Hop and contemporary fine art, later this year. I wrote about show when it opened at @baltimoremuseumofart - looks FANTASTIC!

@dukeanddamewhiskey salted carmel flavored whiskey checks all those boxes, plus, it’s owned by a couple of guys now living in #Miami.

Smooth, rich, not too sweet, real whiskey for aficionados suitable for dinking neat - my preference - or in #cocktails.
Thanks for taking time to introduce me to the spirit guys.

@sothebys will be auctioning this #VanGogh paintin @sothebys will be auctioning this #VanGogh painting, Jardin devant le Mas Debray, on 16 May, during its marquee Modern Art Evening Sale. Estimate: $20 – 30 Million,
The painting was completed by Van Gogh during a short but transformative period spent living with his brother Theo in #Paris between 1886 – 1887. 
Painted on the cusp of his move to the South of France, the influences of Paris would remain with Van Gogh during his “golden years” in Arles where he would create the greatest works of his career. 
Van Gogh’s years in Paris were so significant because he encountered the work of Impressionist painters for the very first time, mixing with likes of Paul Cézanne, Georges Seurat, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Émile Bernard in the cafés and taverns of Montmartre, and rapidly absorbing their ideas. The Parisian avant-garde and styles of Impressionism had a profound effect on the way in which Van Gogh approached his work, and he embarked on a series of still lifes and landscapes of the surrounding areas, abandoning the dark palette which dominated many of his early paintings in Holland, and instead using vibrant colour. 
Inspired by the rural vistas of the city, Jardin devant le Mas Debray embodies this period of radical new direction and experimentation, implementing bright yellow tones to convey the Debray farmhouse in #Montmartre. 
It is extremely rare for works from this time to appear at auction as so few remain in private hands, with the majority held in museum collections around the world. Jardin devant le Mas Debray is the most valuable work by Van Gogh from 1887 ever offered at auction.
Time running out to see @anilaquayyumagha “Fligh Time running out to see @anilaquayyumagha “Flight Patterns” at @cummermuseum @visit_jax. Show closes Sunday, April 30.
