Thank you to everyone who participated in the 19th Machik Weekend! This annual gathering—a unique space of reflection, sharing and connecting - came alive in Minneapolis MN because of the people who traveled from far and near.

Tibetans from diaspora and from Tibet and many global friends brought their stories, their curiosity, and their insights. Together, over 3 days, we wove a tapestry of intergenerational healing (མི་བརྒྱུད་གསོ་སྐྱོང་།), learning and transformation. By coming together, we created a space to grow understanding and care. 


Our heartfelt gratitude to volunteers and donors who contributed to making this event possible! Your support made every difference in creating this unique space for Tibet.

Sincere thanks to our kind sponsors: Heather Henson, Bruce Rich, The McKnight Foundation, Minneapolis Institute of Art.

Thank you to Amazing Momo and Roti for their support of meals and to the Tibetan American Foundation of Minnesota for serving as a community sponsor.
