Traveling Exhibitions

Since its founding in 1999, the Rubin Museum of Art, which houses the most comprehensive museum collection of Himalayan art in the West, has been actively organizing original exhibitions, many of which have traveled throughout the United States. Most exhibitions available for travel, conceived by RMA's curators and comprising works of art drawn from RMA's renowned collection, are first presented in our landmark New York City home. Subsequently, exhibitions are available to qualifying museums for participation in tours that may include several venues.

To browse what exhibitions are readily available for travel, please see our list of Currently Available Exhibitions. For exhibitions available for advance booking, please view our list of Exhibitions Available in the Future. For more information about bringing one of these RMA exhibitions to your museum, please contact Cate Griffin, Exhibitions Coordinator, at 212.620.5000 x 308 or by email at cgriffin@rmanyc.org.
