                    "When the iron bird flies and horses run on wheels, the Tibetan people will be scattered like ants across the face of the earth, and the dharma will come to the land of the red men." --prophecy attributed to the eighth-century Indian sage Padmasambhava (Guru Rinpoche).

                    Tibetan National Uprising Day March

                    Stand Up For Tibet! Please Join Us!  
                    In observance of Tibetan National Uprising Day, we'll march from our center (915 Hickox) to the Santa Fe Plaza. The march will start at 9:15AM (gather at 8:45 @ center) on Saturday March 10th. In light of the dire situation inside Tibet as highlighted by more than 20 self immolations by ordinary Tibetans just in the past 12 months, it becomes even more imperative for those of us with freedoms to use whatever platform available to be the voice for Tibetans in Tibet and speak against China's brutality.

                    Tibet Festival 2010

                    Picture
                    The first ever Tibet festival was held on Sat, Aug 7 2010 from 10am-7pm at the Tibetan cultural center. It was well received by the non-Tibetan community. The turnout to the festival was larger than anticipated due largely to the efforts made by board members and volunteers in publicizing the event. The primary objective of the event was to share Tibetan culture and connect with the local community. We also achieved in welcoming non-Tibetans to our community and inform them of our small yet vibrant Tibetan community in Santa Fe.

                    The Tibet Festival was made possible by an all volunteer team who dedicated their time and resources; we are immensely grateful for their generosity. Our big thanks to dancers, vendors, board members, volunteers, all of the donors of momos and other goods.
