North America
Interviews with three glorious Americans – composer Gabriela Lena Frank, painter Tom Beil, and scientist Bruce Alberts – to promote YoWangdu’s mantra of “spreading joy.” While YoWangdu is Tibetan-owned and we have a special place in our hearts for Tibet, we thrive on inspiration and joy wherever in the world we find it, as we do in the works of American artists Gabriela Lena Frank and Tom Beil, and in the wisdom of preeminent scientist and author Bruce Alberts. We sell photo art, posters, t shirts and much more on our YoWangdu Tibet and YoWangdu World Photos & Arts stores, where 10% of the profits support Tibetan culture and education projects.
