Form 990, SCH D, Part XTax StatusThe Society is exempt from federal income tax under the provision of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, except for unrelated business income activities. In addition, the Society is tax exempt from state and local income tax for related activities, property taxes, and sales tax. During the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Society was not subject to unrelated business income taxes. The Society has evaluated its tax positions and has determined that it is more likely than not that there are no significant uncertain tax positions and it will continue to be exempt from taxes.
Form 990, SCH D, Part III, Line 1a & Line 4Collections ItemsLine 1a The Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller 3rd Collection of Asian Art (the Rockefeller Collection) is noted for both its large number of masterpiece quality objects and the scholarly import awarded to these pieces. The Rockefeller Collection is Pan Asian and includes approximately 300 objects, ranging in date from the second millennium B.C.E. to the 18th century, from such diverse nations as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, China, Korea, and Japan. It includes a large number of bronze sculptures and ceramics, as well as paintings, wooden sculptures, and other decorative arts. Most of the Rockefeller Collection was donated to the Society in 1979. Additions since that time consist principally of donations from the estate of Mrs. Blanchette Rockefeller. In addition to frequent displays in the exhibition galleries at the Society, selected works from the Rockefeller Collection are also shown as part of special exhibitions either at the Society or in museums throughout the world. When not on display at the Society or on loan to museums for temporary exhibitions, the objects are maintained in climate controlled storage. The Society maintains policies and procedures addressing the Rockefeller Collection's upkeep as well as other aspects of its management, including accession/deaccession policies. The Society has adopted the policy of not capitalizing its collection. During 2010, art was acquired with donor restricted funds at a cost of $14,000. During 2009, art was acquired at a cost of $57,016. This expenditure was included as an operating expense. No art was acquired in 2008. Line 4 Asia Society's collection furthers the exempt purpose of the organization by preserving Asian art work for public viewing and is used in educational exhibitions and publications.
Form 990, SCH D, Part VENDOWMENTThe purpose of the Asia Society's endowment funds is to support its operating and capital needs including support of the society's programs, buildings and maintenance of its art collection.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4aArt and Cultural Programs DivisionThe Society's Art and Cultural Programs Division, which operates from the New York City headquarters, explores the vital expressions of diverse Asian cultures through exhibitions, performances, films, lectures and symposia. The Asia Society Museum, located at 725 Park Avenue, presents a wide range of art and historical exhibitions from Asia, taking new approaches to familiar masterpieces and introducing under-recognized arts as well as works of contemporary Asian and Asian-American artists. Several major thematic exhibitions are presented each year, drawing on loans from other institutions and private collections around the world, as well as the Society's permanent collection, the Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller 3rd Collection of Asian Art. These exhibitions are often accompanied by catalogues and other publications, and some exhibitions tour nationally and internationally. The Cultural Programs group, which provides programs of music, dance and theater, focuses on four interrelated areas: the traditional performance genres of Asia, contemporary performance from Asia, new Society-commissioned pieces and works by Asian American performing artists. Additionally, the division organizes a wide range of lectures, author programs, films and symposia for the general public either related to the current museum exhibitions or to further the Society's goal of promoting greater understanding of Asian and Asian American arts and culture.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4bPolicy and Business Programs DivisionTo broaden understanding of Asia's dynamic political, social and business environment, the Society's Policy and Business Programs Division, which operates from the New York headquarters, organizes timely and insightful programs throughout the U.S. and Asia. International conferences, panel discussions, briefings, symposia and study missions bring together an extraordinary community of policy makers, corporate executives, NGO leaders, scholars and the media to respond to fast-breaking events and important trends in Asia. A wide selection of programs and publications are offered every year providing participants with a comprehensive look at the social, political and economic issues facing Asia today. The division organizes three major annual conferences that are held in different cities in Asia each year. The Williamsburg Conference, a small, senior level dialogue with leading Americans and Asians to discuss issues of mutual concern. The Asian Corporate Conference presents high-profile business leaders an opportunity to focus on business issues related to a specific Asian country, region or industry. The Asia 21 Young Leaders Summit brings together some of the most dynamic next generation leaders, all under the age of 40 from Asia and the U.S., to explore imaginative ways to address the most critical issues facing the Asia-Pacific community today, develop common approaches to addressing these shared challenges, and cultivate the long-term relationships necessary for developing responses. The division also conducts a variety of scholarly work through its Bernard Schwartz Fellows, as well as its Associate Fellows program. The Society's Center on U.S.-China Relations, based in New York, was established to meet the need for a deeper understanding between the two countries and promote public dialogue in order to strengthen U.S.-China relations. The Center conducts original research and educates the American and international public on U.S.-China issues, commenting on and distributing timely information on critical topics and current events. The Policy and Business Division's publications include briefings, task force reports and conference reports, which provide in-depth analyses of critical issues and events in Asia and U.S.- Asia relations.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4cEducation DivisionThe mission of Asia Society's Education Division is to develop youth to be globally competent citizens, workers and leaders by equipping them with the knowledge and skills needed for success in an interdependent world. The division does this by increasing both the demand and the supply for global competence and knowledge about Asia, while promoting equity and excellence in education. Demand for global competence is increased by: Fostering national and state policy initiatives including a national coalition to promote language learning; a national policy statement co-signed by leading education and business organizations that provides options for federal policy change; and the States Network on International Education, a network of more than 24 states developing policies and action plans to promote international education in their schools. Sharing best practices from around the world by connecting schools in the United States to schools in Asia, as well as organizing a series of Asia-Pacific Forums on Education in China, India, and the United States to discuss the challenges of globalization to education. A supply of teachers, leaders and schools with the capacity to prepare globally competent students is created by: Creating globally-focused school models of excellence, and developing tools, curriculum, and best practices to create students who graduate both college-ready and globally competent. The centerpiece of this work is the International Studies Schools Network, a national network of small urban secondary schools devoted to international studies and world languages. Expanding the number of schools offering Chinese through publications, the National Chinese Language Conference, and the Confucius Classrooms Project, a new initiative to expand or establish 100 Chinese language programs in schools and school districts across the United States and link them to 100 schools in China. Promoting global learning as a key component to high-quality afterschool programs and as a means to collaborate with schools to achieve essential 21st century outcomes for youth. Web Resources provide a broad range of background knowledge about Asia, curriculum materials, video and audio resources, and other materials to support education about Asia and the world found online at www.asiasociety.org/education. All of this work is represented by The Asia Society Partnership for Global Learning, a network of educators committed to sharing best practices and promoting policy innovations to help our schools prepare students to be both college-ready and globally competent. The Partnership provides the Education Division a means to connect the various strands of our work to systematically engage practitioners, policymakers, and the public through publications, professional development, digital media, and meetings, including our annual conference.
