Schedule for June event

Hi All,

We've got some very exciting workshops and lectures already in the works for our next gathering at DBZ in June 2009. Here's an update of what we have so far...

Lectures:

1 - Eido Roshi will be giving a lecture on calligraphy and scrolls for tea. He will also have his calligraphy for sale so if you have a particular scroll you would like him to do for you, please email bettina@amacord.com and let me know what that is.

2 - Asher Browne is a landscape designer trained in Japan. He worked in the gardens of Yabunouchi Senke. He will be giving a lecture on Roji and it should be excellent.

3 - I have just met a wonderful American potter, Sue Kotulak,  who works in the Shigaraki style and makes fabulous hanaire. She just had a show in Tivoli, NY and I helped arrange chabana in her vases for the show. She will give a talk on Anagama firing and pottery making in the Japanese style.

She will also bring her work for purchase. I had to restrain myself at her show from coming home with armloads of her work - it's great.

Classes & Workshops:

Sachiko Chernin of Tea Circle will be offering a class on making Shifiku. The class will meet everyday. More details later. Sachiko makes beautiful custom Shifiku that you can see on her site http://www.tea-circle.com/. We're very excited to have this opportunity to work with her during the event.

Meiya Wender of White Tiger sweets will be leading us in okashi making.

Chashaku making and Chabana. These are in the works.

We're open for suggestions, so if you want to offer a class or workshop - please write us. Better yet, if you've attended a Friends in Tea event in the past and haven't yet filled out the 5 minute survey, please do so here:

Yoga

The DBZ Yoga teacher has become intrigued with Tea and I have invited her to come to our event and offer yoga for us everyday. I can tell you from experience that she intuitively knows just what you need when you need it. Tea people put a lot of strain on their legs, back and knees (not to mention most every other part of our bodies) and it will be great to work with her in a gentle manner on strengthening and loosening our bodies.

Roji & Tea Space Slide Show - In Santa Fe people sent photos of their tea houses, tea spaces and gardens which were put together into a slide show. It was great to see and we hope to do that again. We'd also love to see slides of some of your memorable tea events. 

Tea - The entire upstairs of the guest house will be fully covered in tatami.

We'll have a formal opening chakai on Thursday morning and then a closing one on Sunday morning.

We're envisioning one or two kettles going all the time for informal  "Open chakai". No host, no guest, find your place on the tatami and freely share tea.

We'll be asking participants to bring dogu - those from far away bring small items, those closer to DBZ and who can drive bring larger items like furo and kama.

More to come. This will be a wonderful event and we hope you can make it. Let us know your thoughts and ideas. Post on the blog. This is your event and we welcome everyone's participation.

Best,

Bettina
