This past Saturday evening the European Union Delegation, with the Hirshhorn Museum, celebrated its State of the Arts Night at the Smithsonian Arts and Industries Building, the second oldest building of the Smithsonian Museum on the national mall built in 1881. Featured at the State of the Arts Night was a selection from William Adair’s extraordinary Golden Doors to Infinity project. The exhibition space at the Arts and Industries Building is a stunning one.

Jovita Neliupsiene, Ambassador of the European Union to the United States, made some compelling comments about the strong connections between the United States and the European Union in the beautiful Smithsonian courtyard.
