Sand Mandala Family Event

During Tibet Week, monks from Drepung Loseling Monastery will create a sand mandala of Avalokiteshvara, Bodhisattva of Compassion. Before the closing ceremony and the symbolic, ritual “withdrawing” of the mandala at 2 pm on Saturday, museum guests will have the opportunity to use Tibetan chak-purs and brightly colored sand to create their own sand paintings.

In appreciation of their ongoing support this event is reserved for Carlos Museum members from 10 AM–noon, and is free. Refreshments will be served. Space is limited and registration is required. Reserve your spot at carlos.emory.edu/thanks.

The event is open to the general public from noon–2 PM.

Free for Carlos Museum members; $10 for nonmember adults, $8 for children ages 6 to 16, free for children 5 and under. Includes admission to the galleries. Reserve your spot at carlos.emory.edu/mandala.
