4 2012 LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Dear friends and supporters:

In this report you will find the highlights of the Rubin Museum of Art’s 2012 activities, including an overview of the generous financial support we received as well as our audited financial statement.

As we are approaching the end of our first decade, we have taken a moment to re-assess the Museum’s position in the cultural landscape of New York City and beyond. Our inquiries resulted in a new mission statement, which we believe captures the experience that the Museum offers:

The Rubin Museum of Art is a dynamic environment that stimulates learning, promotes understanding, and inspires personal connections to the ideas, cultures, and art of Himalayan Asia.

This articulation of the Museum’s mission and core values will provide strategic consistency and guide us in planning future exhibitions and programs. It will offer direction for our online and on-site presence and services—a key to stability and success.

We want to express our utmost gratitude to our generous supporters: individual and institutional donors, foundations, government agencies, members, and volunteers. The Rubin Museum is as strong and vibrant as its base of support.

We look forward to seeing you in the new year.
