This event is part of the 2023-2024 Sacred Arts Tour, presented in the Midcoast by Symmetree Maine. Admission is by donation, with a suggested donation of $10-15 per person.

The Monks of Drepung Gomang are presently on tour in the United States of America to share the compassion and wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism, to demonstrate the artistic accomplishments of the people of Tibet, and to generate funds to insure the survival of Tibetan culture. Drepung Gomang Monastery will use donations to house, feed, and educate everyone wishing to study at this monastic center of higher learning-- including orphans and refugees fleeing Chinese occupied Tibet. The monastery wishes to establish a Food Foundation Fund which will help the monastery to provide a continuous food supply to the student monks in years to come.

Information about Drepung Gomang Monastery and their North American Tour is available on their websites: www.drepunggomang.org, www.drepunggomangusa.com, and www.gomang.org.
