Awam Tibetan Buddhist Institute

Pielstick hasn’t seen a lot of collaboration between the various Buddhist groups in town, though he and others are making efforts to change that.

The Awam Tibetan Buddhist Institute, 3400 E. Speedway, will host its monthly movie night and potluck 6 to 8:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 19.

The film this month is β€œSpring, Summer, Fall, Winter … And Spring” about a small Buddhist monastery floating on a lake, the monk who lives there and the boy he raises. Although the movie night is free to attend, the center requests participants bring food to share and a donation.
