Join Kesang Tashi in conversation with Sienna Craig, Professor of Anthropology at Dartmouth College, in a special Himalayan Heritage event to learn more about Kesang’s remarkable life story—how a young boy’s promise to return to his homeland transformed his life and that of his community for generations. The revitalization of Tibet’s rug weaving heritage with the help of old master craftsmen, followed by the revival of his grandfather’s Flaming Gem Label Tea, comprise Tashi’s swan song, as he passes the torch to the next generation of Tibetan entrepreneurs.
