Nine Rivers Gala Tuesday, October 7, 2008 Rubin Museum of Art 150 West 17th Street New York City The Rubin Museum of Art (RMA) has a unique mission to, present, preserve, and document a permanent collection of Himalayan art that reflects the vitality, complexity, and significance of the Himalayan region and to create exhibitions and programs that explore connections with other world cultures. From the peaks of the Himalayas – a Sanskrit word meaning the “abode of snow” – water streams south and east to create the most magnificent and revered rivers in Asia.
