A NEW YEAR

Now that we are almost finished with the first 6 weeks of the new 2009-2010 school year, we are ready to use this blog spot actively again.

If you look on the web page you will see the main focus of this first six weeks which is, thankfully, the prayer flag.

as a reminder: all prayerflags must be printed by Sept. 25th, 2009

however for a late grade you can print on the following Tuesday

We are FULL of great anticipation for the up-coming prayer flag exchange.

Date: October 16th, 2009

Where: Trammell Crow Collection of Asian Art

When:program to start at 7pm.

(I suggest getting there between 6:30 and 6:45pm)

The Free Tibeters will be hosting and talking at the ceremony however this is a chance to see the new mandala completed and be a part of the late night celebration/opening of the completed arts district.

Please check out the Trammell Crow Collection website to find out all the information about The Mystical Tour of Tibet activities. The opening and closing ceremonies are ticketed events so if you are interested in attending, you need to get your tickets asap!

Our sincere thanks to their director Amy Hofland and her wonderful staff, and the Crow family for including us in this special event and time again.
