Beyond a doubt, you cannot fail to notice this highly elegant building. The Rubin Museum of Art (RMA) has an unusual characteristic feature – it houses various items of Himalayan art. As it is generally acknowledged, this very region possesses a unique and irreplaceable cultural spirit, and the mission of RMA is providing the population with a substantial educational background in this sphere. The Rubin Museum of Art is a non-profitable organization for a wide range of audience – from children to young people interested in the spiritual practices of Tibet monks, from teachers to high-class scholars, from amateurs to professionals.

But the collection of about 2,000 items, the heart of RMA, is not the only reason to visit this peerless institution. To deepen the knowledge of the Himalayan culture, one may participate in a number of regularly held discussions, on- and off-site training sessions, video and audio programs, performances, etc. So, come and feel the intriguing Oriental spirit!
