The Shechen Institute of Traditional Tibetan Art, ‘Tsering Art School,’ was built under the direction of Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche, with the generous support of the Dutch government and a private donor. It is housed within the grounds of the Shechen Monastery in Nepal.
The aim of the Institute is to contribute to the preservation and continuation of the authentic Himalayan Buddhist arts.

One of the few active thangka schools in existence, Tsering Art School benefits from being part of the Shechen Monastery - it's art program is still very much in touch with the living practice of Tibetan Buddhism. This symbiosis gives an unique opportunity for the students and at the same time imbues their work with spirit and power.

Tsering art school is not a commercial enterprise. The only aim of it's program is to truly preserve a tradition which has almost disappeared. As such it relies upon sponsorship and needs your help - without it it would not survive. Please consider this and help us continue on this difficult path.
