Assembled by the Crow family over the past 30 years, the collection features art from China, Japan, India, Southeast Asia and the Himalaya region. The Harwood Museum of Art has arranged for a loan of over 35 objects from this collection including works in ivory, jade, bronze, glass, porcelain, textile, stone, lacquer ware, and wood.
