Meet Dhondup the Yak at the Tibetan Cultural Fair
The 24th annual Tibetan Cultural Fair features a handicrafts bazaar, live music and dance performances, as well as traditional cuisine.
– The handicrafts bazaar showcases traditional arts and crafts such as clothing, jewelry, carpets, dharma-ware, ritual objects, CDs, books and more great gift ideas.
– Live music and dance will be performed by the Tibetan Cultural Association of Québec, offering a unique opportunity to witness Tibetan musical instruments, songs and dances. – Dhondup the Yak – always a favourite for young children – will make a special appearance
– The Tibetan kitchen features the always popular “momos” – traditional dumplings with hot sauce.
For the past 23 years, during the two-day fair, Tibetans and Canadians have come together to celebrate the vibrant Tibetan culture. The Canada Tibet Committee (CTC) is an independent non-governmental organization promoting human rights and freedom for the Tibetan people. The CTC is funded entirely by individual donations and special events such as this annual fair.
