The property includes spaces for reflection and for gatherings. Historically operated exclusively as a museum to showcase some of its collection of 2,500 objects from diverse Muslim cultures, Shangri La is in the midst of a strategic transformation that envisions the institution as a global center for personal and societal transformation. Shangri La is owned and operated by the Doris Duke Foundation (DDF), whose mission is to build a more creative, equitable and sustainable future by investing in artists and the performing arts, environmental conservation, medical research, child well-being and greater mutual understanding among diverse communities. In addition to Shangri La, DDF operates five national grantmaking programs as well as Duke Farms, a New Jersey-based center for applied conservation and sustainability. The activities of DDF, which is headquartered in New York City, are guided by the will of Doris Duke, who endowed the foundation with financial assets that currently total over $2 billion.
