The Allegany Arts Council and Cultural Event Series at Frostburg State University invite you to participate in daily observation of the making of a sand mandala by Tibetan monks from the Drepung Loseling Monastery.
Mandala-making is an ancient ritual which celebrates contemplation, compassion and self-reflection in the course of aligning mindfulness with creative expression.
Daily observation will take place each of the following dates/times, and observers may come and go throughout the period.
Tuesday, April 29 - 1:00PM-6:00PM
Wednesday, April 30 - 10:00AM-6:00PM
Thursday, May 1 - 10:00AM-6:00PM
Friday, May 2 - 10:00AM-6:00PM
Saturday, May 3 - 10:00AM-11:00AM
A Note About Mandala-Making: While visitors are encouraged to come and observe the monks' mandala-making process, it is a time of self-reflection and meditation for the participants. This event is best for those interested in a quiet experience.
All events in this series are free and the public is invited to attend.
Additional events and lectures are available during this series. For a complete schedule, visit here.
