Thangka Art Retreat

​Omega Institute
NY, USA​
​June 30-July 5, 2024​​

Join us for the annual Arts Week at the wonderful Omega Institute!

Learn to draw and/or paint a Buddha or Mandala, and enjoy lectures on Tibetan Art during this meditative retreat with like-minded people, at the beautiful Omega Institute in Rhinebeck NY.

Carmen’s personal approach and guidance makes this retreat suitable for students of all levels.

The subject this week is Green Tara and her mandala. You can choose which one you want to work on this week.

Beginners may also choose for Buddha Shakyamuni or Medicine Buddha as their subject this week (as these are better suitable for beginners) but please contact Carmen beforehand if you would like that so she can prepare this for you.

There will be time to make lovely walks, visit the sweet village of Rhinebeck and join the extra eveing programs that Omega offers.

Omega offers amazing meals and you can choose from different places to stay on campus (or off campus).

Thangka Art Retreat

During this beautiful 8-day Summer Retreat you will learn to draw (and color or paint) a Buddha or mandala according to the Tibetan Buddhist thangka tradition.

It’s also possible to work on Amoghapasha this week (a subject that I’m offering this month in a course that is full with a waiting list).

For more advanced students it’s possible to create a traditional thangka canvas and frame this week.

The retreat is suitable for everyone, from absolute beginners to advanced.
​All meals and lodging included.

Note: this retreat will be offered in Dutch, but translations for the lectures/meditations can be made for you on request and personal guidance can be done in English.
