Living in New York City is a passport to all the cultures of the world in food, clothing and art: the Asia Society is one of those portals 

 Join us this week as we explore a major institution in the middle of Manhattan representing the arts and culture of over 20 Asian countries.  The current exhibit Meiji Modern, explores the emergence of Japan under Emperor Meiji from the mid 1800's to the early 1900's.  T he scope of art and artifacts will give us a new understanding of Japan as it emerged from a feudal society into a modern one.
