The December session of Grace Farms' Journey into the World of Tea series traces the Japanese tea ceremony from its origins to the present day and also looks at Chinese tea culture. Tea expert and educator Frank Kwei shows pieces from his own collection of teaware and talks about wabi sabi, the Japanese idea of finding beauty in impermanence and imperfection. Like the other sessions, it includes a guided tasting in the glass-enclosed Tea Pavilion. Tickets are $25, $20 for members, and free for Tea Advocate members.
