...Transported by the U.S. Navy, the exhibit opened two months ago at the University of Indiana, which has a thriving teacher and student exchange program with Thailand. When it leaves the Met in February, the show will go on to Boston, Toledo, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco and Honolulu in the U.S. before getting back home...
