Asian Pacific American Heritage Month art project

Welcome to our special lesson plan in honor of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month! Join us as we delve into the vibrant world of Asian culture through an exciting art project. This student-tested lesson plan is designed to explore the rich traditions of Asian art, with a focus on the unique techniques and styles of Thangka scroll paintings.
Thangkas are traditional Tibetan Buddhist paintings depicting deities, scenes, or mandalas on cotton or silk appliqué. Throughout Asia, these exquisite scroll paintings are treasured for their spiritual significance and intricate craftsmanship. In our lesson, we will dive deep into the history and symbolism of Thangka art, highlighting its importance in Asian culture.
