Recognition awards for Zen Art contributions：

The World Zen Art Center (WZAC-NY) is a respected non-profit institution dedicated to the research and promotion of Zen art. Founded in New York on December 15, 2012, and guided by Master Yi-Xiong Gu, the Center explores the essence of Zen Tao through meditation, Qimen Dunjia, calligraphy, and painting. Since 2025, WZAC-NY has operated as a branch of the American Ci Bei Temple, sharing a unified mission and financial structure. While the Center leads its own programs and initiatives, all donations are processed through the Temple’s secure account to ensure transparency and strategic oversight. Your support helps preserve the rich traditions of Zen art and Tao, ensuring these cultural treasures continue to inspire future generations. 🙏 To contribute, please make a secure donation via PayPal:
