Training more thangka artists is the central mission of the institute, and it offers comprehensive study programs ranging from beginner to advanced levels. Students dedicate themselves to honing their craft through daily practice.
Karlog, a thangka painting student at the institute for two and a half years, said he majored in thangka in college and after graduation continued to learn the art at the institute.
"The masters are kind to us, and the institute provides free meals and accommodations," he said. "I want to continue to study for six years. My dream is to become a successful thangka master, and I want to make my own contribution to help the ancient art prosper."
