Dog Day · 16 October 2009

Kathmandu Contemporary Arts Centre's mission is to act as a catalyst for contemporary artists in Nepal and promote their work abroad. In 2010 KCAC established Nepal's first international contemporary arts centre in Patan and began giving scholarships to emerging Nepali artists.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  Please support my sponsored walk on 16th October - Nepal's Day of the Dog*. I will be one of up to 108 dogs taking part - all donations to my web page will be gratefully received. 

For further information please visit the website: www.kathmanduarts.org.

We have now rented the ideal building for the arts centre in Kathmandu and renovation is in progress and will be opening within the next few months.  We have raised half the money but still need to raise a further £30, 000.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the Kathmandu Arts Centre. So please dig deep and donate now.

*Every year in Nepal, for one day, all dogs, including strays, are looked on with respect.  A red tika is put on the dog's forehead and a garland of flowers around its neck and it is prayed to so that it will guard the house as it guards the gates of the underworld and in so doing divert destruction away from the home.  Consequently, a donation will be made to the Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre, a charity helping street dogs in Kathmandu - www.katcentre.org.np
