Some great news from Diss :
Diss Museum's Manning commemoration,
Friends in High Places, comes to a climax this month with the visit of the
Tashi Lhunpo monks.
This is a rare chance to experience the music and art of one of the world's most fascinating and mystical cultures.
From Monday 24th to Saturday 29th the monks will be at the Corn Hall making a beautiful sand mandala.
You can drop in any time during the day to see its progress and
then come to the destruction ceremony at 11am on the Saturday.
On the Tuesday evening at 7.30 there is a hands-on workshop when you can try butter sculpture, mandala making, Tibetan script and prayer flag making.
On the Wednesday at 7.30pm you can see the film Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion.
There is a supper workshop on the Friday at 7.30pm, with traditional food made by the monks, followed by dance, debate, mudras (symbolic hand gestures) and Kundrik prayer.
The concert on the Saturday at 7.30pm shows their sacred music, dance and prayers,
all in traditional costumes and masks. This is one of the best cultural events to come to Diss in years and is not to be missed.
Family and season tickets are available.
