Heritage of Thailand Fund - Asian Cultural History Program
The Smithsonian thanks the many donors to the "Heritage of Thailand Fund," founded in 1982. This exhibition is one of many projects it has supported. Publication of the book Treasures of Two Nations: Thai Royal Gifts to the United States of America, truly a collaborative project, was also made possible by a generous donation from the Royal Thai Government to this fund. The book's preparation was undertaken in celebration of two events in the year 1996: the Smithsonian Institution's 150th anniversary, and the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Accession to the Throne of His Majesty, King Bhumibol Adulyadej, Rama IX.
