Making Buddhist Art Workshop (Thangka, Mandala and Torma)

Workshop led by trained traditional artist Urgyen Gyalpo

---

Join students and faculty from the History of Religions at UTM in this immersive hands-on workshop to learn about some of the techniques associated with making religious material objects in Tibetan Buddhist contexts. In this workshop, led by trained traditional artist Urgyen Gyalpo, we will have a chance to encounter and experiment with some of the forms of Tibetan Buddhist religious arts: thangka paintings and their preparation, sand mandalas, and torma (offering cakes), learning through doing under the guidance of trained artist Urgyen Gyalpo.
