The Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art shares its celebrated collection with museums and institutions across the globe to facilitate a broader understanding of the arts of Asia. Central to our collection sharing program are long-term object loans spanning three to five years. These expand access to the collection in a meaningful way, enabling more people in more places to learn about and experience the art and cultures of the greater Himalayan region. The Rubin also shares objects from the collection for short-term special exhibitions at other museums, as well as through traveling exhibitions curated by the Rubin, such as Gateway to Himalayan Art and the Tibetan Buddhist Shrine Room.
We welcome museums and institutions to inquire about borrowing specific objects, types of art, or for a thematic exhibition project.
