The Duke NorCal Women's Forum invites you to join a private one-hour tour of the special exhibit Spirit House, at the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University

"Spirit House is a significant exhibition related to the museum’s Asian American Art Initiative (AAAI) that investigates how contemporary artists of Asian descent challenge the boundary between life and death through art. A thematic exploration of the work of thirty-three Asian American and Asian diasporic artists, Spirit House asks the question, what does it mean to speak to ghosts, inhabit haunted spaces, be reincarnated, or enter different dimensions? Inspired by spirit houses, small devotional structures found throughout Thailand that provide shelter for the supernatural, this exhibition considers how art can bridge the gap between this world and the next."

After the tour, we welcome those who can join us for a no-host lunch at Tootsies at the Cantor Arts Center.
