The China Institute annual Blue Cloud Gala honored\u00a0Liu Dan, John S. Long, Howard P. Milstein,\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Dame Jillian Sackler\u00a0<\/strong>for their contributions to US-China relations. Co-chaired by\u00a0Yue-Sai Kan\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Chien Chung (Didi) Pei<\/strong>, the evening included performances by the U.S. China Music Institute at Bard College Conservatory and ballroom champion dancers\u00a0Victor Fung\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Anastasia Muravyeva.\u00a0<\/strong>More than 300 guests crowded the Pierre Hotel Grand Ballroom and raised nearly one million dollars.<\/p>\n

Howard P. Milstein was honored for his generous philanthropy and for founding the Milstein Medical Asian American Partnership Foundation. Receiving the award, he said, \u201cIt\u2019s a privilege to be able to help support the good work of the China Institute, and it is particularly meaningful because I\u2019ve had the opportunity to benefit from many of their scholarly programs.\u201d Congresswoman\u00a0Carolyn Maloney<\/strong>\u00a0sent him a special congratulatory video.<\/p>\n

John S. Long, founder of the Long Family Foundation, was honored for establishing the University of California Irvine Long Institute, which works to bridge a common understanding between the US and China. \u201cI\u2019m just delighted to be part of this,\u201d said Long. \u201cWe do a lot of work with the second generation of Chinese here and that\u2019s something that we and China Institute have been collaborating on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dame Jillian Sackler, philanthropist and chair of the Foreign Policy Association, was recognized for her achievements in East-West cultural diplomacy, including founding the Arthur M. Sackler Museum of Art and Archaeology at Peking University in Beijing. \u201cI\u2019m very honored to receive the Blue Cloud Award,\u201d said Dame Jillian. \u201cI feel like a pioneer of museums in China because I built the first teaching museum there in 1993. It was the first modern institution in the country to have state-of-the-art curatorial standards. I feel proud to have begun the realization that museums can contribute to the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dame Jillian wore a gown created by Chinese designer,\u00a0Guo Pei<\/strong>. The dress\u2019 half-black, half-white pattern with embroidery and ink took more than 560 hours to make and was meant to symbolize a \u201ccultural collision\u201d, as well as Dame Jillian\u2019s talent for bringing people together.<\/p>\n

Liu Dan, one of China\u2019s most significant living artists, was also honored. His award was accepted by Didi Pei. \u201cThe construction process is never truly finished because we are always looking to do more, and this is what tonight is really about,\u201d said Pei. \u201cIt is an opportunity to highlight all that we have done and set our collective sights on what we will build moving forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

The gala also featured a live auction by\u00a0CK Swett\u00a0<\/strong>who raised $250,000.<\/p>\n
