MATCHA isn't just a mixer—it's what makes your visit to the Asian Art Museum downright exhilarating. Experience mesmerizing performances, create your own art, embark on gallery tours, see the latest special exhibition, sit in on a talk, mingle with friends over cocktails, enjoy what the DJ is spinning, and much, much more.

Phantoms Arise!
Thursday, June 28, 5:00 pm–9:00 pm
$10 (includes special exhibition admission)
Tune in to the spiritual and supernatural forces within Phantoms of Asia. Awake your imagination and explore the invisible worlds that defy one’s sense of space and time.

Taking Up Space

$10 (includes special exhibition admission)
As a forum for alternative programming, Spacebi reimagines the museum as a collective artist studio. Be a part of Spacebi, create new artworks, and join us for the “official” celebration of a year worth of artist projects, creative collaborations, and off-the-record experiments all inspired by the Asian. COME PLAY!
Shamanism
