Join us for a Japanese tea ceremony performed by Mrs. Kyoko Wada - she would like to share "the happiness of the tea ceremony" with you. Mrs. Wada has been studying the Japanese Tea Ceremony (URA SENKE school) for more than 30 years. Students will watch the tea ceremony and will then be instructed in the rites that have to be observed by guests of a Japanese tea ceremony. Experience the four elements of the "way of tea:" harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. Note: While the number of participants is limited to 20, you may attend as part of the audience.
