About this event
Celebrating Spring with "Tabi-Dansu" - Travel trunk for Japanese tea ceremony.
I use a Louis Vuitton cosmetic Trunk as "Tabi-Dansu" which could perhaps be called 'MITATE'.
Enjoy the early spring tea ceremony. It gives you the desire to go out and feel the spring breeze!

About the organizer
Taking time out of a busy day, sitting in a tearoom, emptying the mind of thoughts, listening to the sound of water boiling in the teakettle, and drinking a bowl of tea is such exquisite pleasure.
With a bowl of tea, the host offers not only the tea but also the spirit of the occasion, appealing to all five senses.
Please enjoy as the host delivers this moment by the art of the Japanese tea ceremony.
