The Art of Tibet: Sand Mandala

Dates

-
Sun, May 14, 2000 through Fri, May 19, 2000

Visitors are invited to watch the daily development of a mandala in sand created by Tibetan monks and experience the interrelation of the arts in their spiritual quest. Mandala is a spiritual symbol that represents the universe. Of all the artistic traditions of Tantric Buddhism, that of painting with colored sand ranks as one of the most unique and exquisite. Millions of grains of sand are painstakingly laid into place on a flat platform over a period of days or weeks to form the image of a mandala.
