Tibet Relief Fund hosts an exhibition of photos by Geoff Harris of the Tashi Lhunpo monastery in South India.

The photographer, recently travelled to the monastery and spent a week photographing the Tibetan Buddhist monks and their activities.

His shots paint a vivid picture of monastic life; debating sessions, cooking and Losar celebrations are just a few activities you can see in Geoff's photos.

Two of the Tashi Lhunpo monks will be present at the exhibition on Friday, creating a sand mandala. Six monks will come back on Saturday to finish the mandala and then destroy it in the canal nearby in a traditional ritual. This is an event not to be missed!

The venue of the event is the Hive - a fantastic community space across the road from our office which demonstrates how empty buildings can be used creatively for the benefit of the local community.
