Join us for an exhibition reception and a celebration of the Tibetan New Year holiday of Losar. One of the most important festivals in the Tibetan calendar, Losar is an opportunity to bid farewell to the past and any negatives or challenges that occurred and to usher in a new year of positivity and good. Explore the galleries and the newest exhibition Gateway to Himalayan Art, listen to music, taste a variety of cuisine, and participate in hands-on art activities.
