Join us this Sunday to check out the new “Korean Treasures” exhibit (FREE!) at the Smithsonian's Sackler Gallery. This extraordinary collection features masterpieces donated to the Korean nation by the estate of the late Samsung CEO. It is the first time these magnificent pieces are accessible to the public. The works span from ancient times to the present, showcasing paintings, sculptures, ceramics, and more from Korea's rich artistic heritage.

📅 When: This Sunday, 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM

📍 Where: We'll start at the museum’s brand new Moongate Cafe (which has been getting rave reviews!) at 2:00 PM, then head to the exhibition together.

☕🍜 About Moongate Cafe: This new pan-Asian cafe overlooks the Smithsonian’s famous Moongate Garden and serves an assortment of dishes, snacks, and beverages, including:

• Vietnamese bánh mì
• Sesame salmon rice bowls
• Tokyo-style hot dogs
