Tashi Lhunpo Monks – Hands-on Workshop
Venue: The Corn Hall
In this hands-on workshop you will be able to try your hand at Butter Sculpture, sand Mandala Making, the art of Tibetan Script and Prayer Flag Printing.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience the music and art of the unique Tibetan Buddhist culture which flourished for six centuries in Tibet and which the monks now continue to practise in exile.
Approx 1hr 30mins
The Tashi Lhunpo Monks will be at the Corn Hall for a whole a week of workshops and performance. During their residency, they will create a Sand Mandala. The most exquisite of all their artistic traditions, it requires millions of coloured grains of sand to be painstakingly laid into place to form an intricate design. The development of the picture day-by-day, through to the moving climax of the Destruction Ceremony on Thursday 3rd August, is a spellbinding spectacle.
View work on the Mandala between 11am-4pm on Saturday 29th and 10am-4pm Monday-Wednesday. Entry is FREE. Why not pop in during your lunch break or after work?
