Cultural Bridge
&
Lasting Bond

The NCG Foundation is an independent 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization founded in 2011 to create the premier classical Chinese garden and center for cultural study and practices in the nation’s capital with the high-level cooperation of the U.S. and Chinese governments.

The China Garden, situated on 12 lush acres in the heart of the U.S. National Arboretum in Washington, D.C., will display a delicate, harmonious balance between natural and man-made structures.

The National China Garden will be an expression of friendship between China and the United States, and a testament to the celebrated cultural histories and traditions of both countries.

The National China Garden offers an extraordinary opportunity to build a lasting tribute to U.S.-China relations in our nation’s capital. Individuals and companies that pledge time, financial support, or partnership in support of the China Garden project earn goodwill with Chinese and US government officials, who value the project as vital to strengthening bilateral relations, people-to-people exchanges and shared interests for the long term.
