For this year's Tatezome (the first tea ceremony of the year), we welcomed our honored guests: Shozo Sato - Professor Emeritus of the University of Illinois, and Lindsey Stirek - Japanese Literature PhD student of Ohio State University.
Below is the Chakaiki (record of the tea gathering) as well as a small image gallery of the events throughout the day, starting with a kaiseki (light meal), followed by sumi demae (laying of charcoal), koicha (thick tea), and ending with usucha (thin tea). Below are the reflections from students who participated in the Chado Urasenke Tankokai Michigan Association 10th Anniversary Celebration, which took place on the weekend of May 6th and 7th, 2017.
