Before the Spanish colonized the Philippines, little-known kingdoms flourished in the region. Philippine Gold: Treasures of Forgotten Kingdoms, on display this fall at Asia Society, showcases recently excavated objects that highlight the unprecedented creativity, prosperity and sophisticated metalworking tradition of the precolonial period.

Dr. Adriana Proser will join Queens Library to discuss these stunning gold treasures from the Philippines that are not only historically significant, but which demonstrate a rich cultural heritage.
