The Jim Thompson Art Center

I came here after visiting the Jim Thompson House. Sadly, this place was a bit of an anti-climax. One the day of the visit there one art exhibition on show, mostly about the art of the non-aligned nations of the cold war. That was house in one room. There was a theatre showing films of anti-western factions ranting about the west. Don't get me wrong, the place is lovely. There's a library full of books on Thailand and design. Cafes, shops and meeting areas that seem ideal for collaboration. I get the feeling that this place isn't really for casual visitors. Maybe for art students looking for inspiration and to work.

The event management for our recent Imagineear event at the Jim Thompson Art Center, led by organizer Kay and her team, was nothing short of sublime. From pre-event planning to on-site execution, every detail was meticulously handled with professionalism and care. Kay’s thorough preparation ensured that all aspects of the event were accounted for, and her clear, reassuring communication left us confident that everything was under control. The food and service were standout features, delighting guests with exceptional quality and presentation. The event facility itself was impeccable, complemented by brilliant floral arrangements that added a touch of elegance to the occasion. No request was too much trouble for Kay and her team, who went above and beyond to make the event seamless and memorable. We highly recommend Kay and the Jim Thompson Art Center team for their outstanding event management. Thank you, Kay, for making our event a resounding success!

Always love coming back here. For the art, for the food and for educational programs and fun events! Also the rooftop Isan larb seab bbq is a good spot for evening drinks 🧡👌🏽
