The Tibetan Museum Society, a 501(c)(4) non-profit association, is a recently formed international civic league of concerned citizens who wish to advocate museum exhibition of Asian art from ancient Mongolia and the greater Himalayan region. Through a broad range of programs and projects, the Society's two primary focuses are: 1) to support selected museums and institutions that enrich the arts with display of historically significant representations of Buddhist culture and 2) to protect sacred, religious shrines, from which Buddhist art is gathered for public sale or display against removal without consent, artifacts of any kind — and to further facilitate the repatriation of any sacred work, previously obtained by illicit means. Though not allied with any political group or religious sect, the Tibetan Museum Society supports the fundamental humanitarian right to freedom of religious expression and is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes.
