Tibetan New Year. The festival drew vast numbers of monks, citizens and pilgrims from all over the country who
gathered to pray for world peace and prosperity. Tibet House US is a non-profit organization founded in 1987 at
the behest of His Holiness the Dalai Lama that serves as a center for the preservation and presentation of the
endangered Tibetan culture.
