Asia Week New York Association mara ọkwa na Songtsam, the award-winning luxury boutique group of hotels and tours located in the Tibet and Yunnan Provinces of China, is a Ndinọ Onye nkwado for a third consecutive year.
Margaret Tao, Asia Week New York’s Executive Director, said “Songtsam is an ideal sponsor for Asia Week New York because of the great synergy between our goals of promoting further interest in Asia and collecting Asian art.”
Florence Li, Songtsam’s Director of International Sales & Marketing, said:
“We are very pleased to continue as a Presenting Sponsor of Asia Week New York because Songtsam is deeply committed to exploring and preserving the essence of Tibetan culture.”
Songtsam Founder & Chairman, Baima Duoji, started collecting art long before he established his first hotel, Songtsam Lodge Shangri-La, which is located next to the famous Songzanlin Monastery in Shangri-La. In fact, many of the Songtsam properties across the Tibetan plateau are decorated with Baima’s personal collection, with each hotel acting as a private art museum. In fact, this August, the Songtsam Tibetan Art Museum was opened within the Songtsam Linka Retreat Shangri-La. The first floor of the Museum houses Baima’s private collections, which share a common theme of “craftsmanship and wisdom.” Songtsam aims to share the beauty of humanity’s imagination and creativity with people from all over the world and its support of Asia Week New York helps fulfill this commitment.
