How much do you know about matcha? Matcha originated in China about 1000 years ago, traveled to Japan, and has reached popularity worldwide today - especially right here in New York City. Chanoyu 茶の湯 is the ritual preparation of matcha which is rooted in Zen Buddhist philosophy and seeks to unify nature, objects, and people within a once-in-a-lifetime moment. As the interest in matcha spreads, the number of chanoyu enthusiasts also increases.
Chanoyu Week NYC 2023 brings together chanoyu practitioners in the New York area for this special occasion at The Invisible Dog Art Center, Brooklyn to share our own unique way of tea. Please enjoy our heartfelt tea in the beautiful garden setting.
