Description

Each pass allows one individual general admission to the Asian Art Museum for a single visit at the time of his/her choice. Visitors must present their passes at the Museum's Admission Ticket booth. A surcharge may be applicable for special exhibitions and/or special events. 


The Asian Art Museum is one of the largest museums in the world devoted exclusively to Asian art. But they are more than just an art museum - they are your ticket to Asia.


Here, you can travel through 6,000 years of history, trek across seven major regions, and sample the cultures of numerous countries. The collection includes over 18,000 objects ranging from tiny jades to monumental sculptures, paintings, porcelains and ceramics, lacquers, textiles, furniture, arms and armor, puppets, and basketry.


Many of the finest objects in the museum’s collection were donated by Chicago industrialist Avery Brundage in the 1960s, serving as the impetus for the museum's founding. His contribution includes some of the museum's most celebrated objects,including a gilt bronze Buddha;the oldest known dated Chinese Buddha in the world and often cited as a textbook example of Chinese Buddhist art.
