One can come to this centre of Tibetan culture, get acquainted with the people, who work here, try oneself in the workshops, where people study carving, working with metal and glass, thanka and mandala painting. You can get to know in details traditional Tibetan painting of Karma Gadri style, which combines Indian and Chinese cultures, and also take part in the seminars or even stay there to work and live.
