Event Description:
Reception: National Sacred Arts Tour and Exhibition
Description: Join us for a reception for the National Sacred Arts Tour and Exhibition on Thursday, Sept. 12, from 5:30-7PM in Rueff Gallery East. The National Sacred Arts Tour of the monks of the Drepung Gomang Monastery, based in Tibet, will be visiting Purdue from September 9 - 13.
Gallery visitors will be able to watch as the Drepung Gomang monks painstakingly lay millions of grains of colored sand onto a platform over a period of several days, forming an intricate sand mandala in Rueff Gallery East (Pao Hall). The monks utilize the Sacred Arts Tour as a way to spread a message of peace, share the Tibetan Buddhist culture, and to raise funds for their monastery’s charitable work.
