Media Studio Progress

The monks are working each day on the renovation of the spaces where all of the publications are created, called the Media Studio. This 180 degree panorama shows the Cedar Room on the left and the Waialeale Room on the right. Doors are being hung, vents installed, wiring tweaked and cabinets built.

Satya Palani has joined the team during his stay on Kauai, coming out of 12 years of retirement to use his masterly tile setting skills. We are enormously grateful to Satya for taking care of a corner of expertise that is beyond our abilities.

We also brought the 16 wooden ceiling coffers over, to measure them and get ready for installation next month. The ceiling will transform the space. In the photo you can see one of the coffers with the kolam in place. There will be kolam designs from all parts of India.
