We had a great tour of Asian art and the Yin Yu Tang House at the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM) on Sunday, April 27, 2025. Our guide was curator Yao Wu who joined the PEM after serving as the inaugural Jane Chace Carrol Curator of Asian Art at the Smith College Museum of Art (2015–2024).
Several members of the NSSCC Book Club were on the tour after having read Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China by Jung Chang. After the tour we enjoyed a delicious dinner at Su Chang’s in Peabody.
Special thanks to PEM Philanthropy Officer, Stacylee Kruuse ’96, for setting up this wonderful tour for our club.
