Contact is taking a holiday!

Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.

Artist Banned

March 1, 2017;

Tashi Norbu, 43, a Tibetan artist based in the Netherlands, has cancelled a live painting performance in Lilau Square in Macau, an autonomous territory of China. Tashi was scheduled to paint a Fire Rooster to symbolise the Tibetan New Year but was told that the China Liaison Office deemed his work controversial and it would be risky to enter Macau. A display of Tashi’s other work has also been cancelled.
