Virtual Japanese Tea Ceremony for Broward County Schools

開催日 3/18/2024

今年で3年目を迎えて、お茶を飲んだこともない生徒さんの中にも日本のお茶という文化の存在への理解が広がっているように感じた。各クラスの先生方が勉強されて、生徒さんに伝えてくださっている様子がうかがえて、手ごたえを感じることができた。

This is our third participation since 2022, and I always look forward to students' unexpected questions, especially from those new to the tea ceremony. Interest has grown noticeably, with teachers now engaging more profoundly and discussing Japanese tea culture in advance.

Following the January 1 earthquake on the Noto Peninsula this year, renowned for its high-quality traditional crafts, we focused on tea and Japanese craftsmanship. We hope participants will cherish their appreciation of tea culture, even online, and facilitators will deepen their understanding of his rich tradition.
