2023 Cultural Immersion Summer Course | TIPA

Описание: The first-ever cultural immersion summer course’s inauguration ceremony was conducted in the new auditorium on July 14 with Ms. Chime Tseyang, the DoRC secretary, serving as the chief guest.

The principal guest spoke about comparable curricula for advanced Tibetan studies being provided by Sarah College and TCV School. However, she stressed the program’s singularity as being notably different, though, and advised the participants to learn as much as they can to stand out in their respective communities. She commended the parents for enrolling their children for the course and recognising its significance.

She discussed the importance of parents teaching their kids about the past and the struggles that earlier generations have faced.

She suggested that in addition to teaching the pupils performance skills, teachers teach them the Tibetan national hymn, which is sung at all official Tibetan events and on other occasions.

TIPA’s director, Dhondup Tsering, presented a welcome speech and went into great detail about how the actual course came to be. The programme originally began as a series of requests from parents who wished to have their children acquire and practise performing arts talents at TIPA in the midst of already hectic schedules.

In order to spread the course notice, the representative offices were approached with this notion. Additionally, the announcement was made via TIPA’s social media accounts.

The seven participants from the US and Germany will learn about Tibetan opera, folk music, and the impact of music on societies through this curriculum.

At the conclusion, the USAID, CTA, and the Tibet Fund were thanked for making it possible.
