Enchanting China! 2015 Tiger Ball Glorifies Culture
Aisa Society Tiger Ball
One of the 11 locations throughout the world, the 40,000 square feet Asia Society Texas Center located in the Museum District, highlights Houston’s diversity and rich cultural mission.
Since April of 2012 it became a tradition to host the annual Asia Society Tiger Ball at the Center itself – oozing sophistication and uniqueness.
Enchanting China was the theme for this year’s Tiger Ball. Despite heavy rains guests enjoyed the evening with honorees Lily and Charles Foster, Chairs Anne and Albert Chao, Y. Ping Sun and David Leebron, raising $1.3 million. A tremendous effort and dedication from the chairs, generous patrons and sponsors.

With more than 700 guests enjoying the Chinese themed festive atmosphere, Asia Society Executive Director Bonna Kol and Deputy Director John Bradshaw Jr. greeted each and everyone.
