Please join us in celebrating the festive Tibetan holiday of Losar. Losar is one of the most important festivals celebrated in Nepal. 'Lo' means year or age, and 'Sar' means new or fresh. So the full meaning of Losar is a new year or the beginning of a new era!  

The Central Oregon Losar Sherpa New Year's celebration will be held on Thursday, February 29th between 4:30 pm and 8:00 p.m.  The event will be held at the nationally featured High Camp Taproom in Sisters.

The evening will include:

Food and beverages will include:

We hope you can join the celebration and take this opportunity to meet other Central Oregon individuals who share an interest in Nepal and making this world a better place. The celebration will provide a great opportunity to learn more about Ten Friends and our efforts to assist, educate and empower the people of Nepal.

The event is also a Fund Raiser for Ten Friends with $50 (tax deductible) of your attendance fee going towards supporting programs being conducted by Ten Friends' Elevate Nepal Initiatives. Elevate's focus is on the people who are part of the Musahar Caste and who generally reside in the village of Tilahi.  Representing the bottom of the Nepal caste system, they are treated as ‘untouchables’ and suffer from significant discrimination resulting in extreme poverty with no opportunities to improve their quality of life and standard of living.  View 2023 Accomplishments.
