Join eight Tibetan monks from Tashi Lhunpo Monastery during their residency at Harewood as they create an intricate sand mandala and offer an introduction to the arts, dance and music of a Tibetan monastery.

From the dedication ceremony in the Gallery on Monday 28th October through the week see how the monks painstakingly place millions of grains of coloured sand into a design symbolizing a beautiful palace for the Buddha – a form of meditation in the Tantric tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. In a moving final ritual on the morning of Sunday 3rd November witness the destruction of the mandala as the meditation is completed.
