Each year we have the pleasure of attending Hatsugama, the Japanese tea ceremony of the year. What a nice tradition to experience a tea ceremony among friends and to enjoy a high quality Japanese bento lunch as well. To the right is a picture of some of the colorful kimonos worn as part of the ceremony.

Great ceremony, I wish it was on video somewhere…

Nice to hear from you. I think you’re on the east coast. In San Diego’s Japanese Friendship garden, we have monthly demonstrations of the tea ceremony for public viewing.
You might try looking up a local chapter of the Urasenke school to see if there are demonstrations in your area.
