Architecture for Tibet Benefit for the Children of Manjushree Orphanage
October 12, 6:00 PM–8:00 PM
Pravda, 281 Lafayette Street , (between Houston and Prince Streets) New York, New York 10012
Architecture for Tibet's current project is an Academic Center for the Manjushree Orphanage in Tawang, Arucnachal Pradesh, in the high Himalaya of Northeast India. The new, light-filled Academic Center will replace the present schoolhouse, which is falling apart and not large enough to accommodate the number of children.
The proposed two-story building will contain not only classrooms, but a library, a multi-purpose space, a computer and language lab, and a large Nursery Environment, for the youngest children to learn, play and be cared for in.
