WHO WE ARE
H Foundation for the Arts is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting contemporary art practices rooted in Asian and diasporic cultures. Through exhibitions, public programs, and creative collaborations, the Foundation fosters cultural dialogue and engages with the complexities of identity, tradition, and transformation in today’s world.
The H Foundation for the Arts, San Marino. Our home for exhibitions, programs, and cultural dialogue.
Founded in 2025, H Foundation for the Arts is a public-facing arts platform developed from H Foundation — formally established as Cultural Foundations of Zhendai He (USA). Rooted in a legacy of cultural research and international exchange, the organization continues a vision shaped by founder Tina He and inspired by the cultural legacy of the scholar and educator Zhendai He (1867–1952).
Through exhibitions, residencies, public programs, and cross-cultural collaborations, H Foundation for the Arts supports contemporary artists from Asia and its diaspora while fostering dialogue between tradition and contemporary expression. We continue to build connections across cultures, communities, and generations through art and public engagement.
