Tibetan Arts & Culture Exhibition

Mandala Offering

Minam Rinpoche together with a Senior Professor Tibetan doctor, Thubten Phuntsog will be visiting in January 2010. We plan to hold a Tibetan Medicine & Herbs, Arts & Culture Exhibition. A similar exhibition was held in March 2007

Calligraphy session with Minam Rinpoche

Minam Rinpoche will demonstrate the art of making tsampa (roasted barley) and tibetan tea. In tibetan tea, the key ingredients are brick tea, salt, milk and butter. No sugar. Many tibetan artifacts will be on display along side with Rinpoche's calligraphy works. There will also be herbs that can only be found on the very highlands of Tibet. Below is a tentative program of the exhibition. Please come back for updates.
