As Director of the Crow Museum of Asian Art, Hofland leads the preeminent museum in the southern United States dedicated to the art and cultures of China, Japan, Korea, India, and Southeast Asia. Since joining the institution at its inception and later becoming executive director in 2002, she has shaped the museum into a nationally recognized center for artistic excellence, education, wellness, and cross-cultural engagement. Under her leadership, the museum expanded its permanent collection, launched major exhibitions, pioneered Asian-inspired wellness programming, and strengthened its role as a cultural bridge between East and West.

Hofland’s work has consistently emphasized accessibility, compassion, and community connection—values that align closely with JASDFW’s mission to strengthen U.S.–Japan relations through education, business collaboration, and cultural understanding. Her contributions have left a lasting impact on the Dallas Arts District and the broader international cultural landscape.
