Join Taiwanese ceramicist and designer Chia Ying Wu for an intimate tea ceremony and hands-on workshop exploring the intersection of craft, ritual, and quiet reflection. Known for her elegant and functional tableware, Wu invites participants into a meditative space where the act of drinking tea becomes a dialogue between object, gesture, and presence.
Through this immersive experience, you'll not only learn the basics of tea preparation and ceremony, but also explore how ceramics can shape sensory and emotional encounters. Whether you're a maker, a tea lover, or simply curious, this workshop offers a rare chance to slow down and reconnect with the poetry of everyday objects.
There will be two time slots for the tea ceremony: 3:00–4:00 PM and 4:00–5:00 PM. There are only 5 seats per session.
Please select your preferred time slot at checkout.
Your ticket includes access to the tea ceremony, and the ticket amount can be used as credit toward purchasing artwork from Chia Ying Wu afterward.
About the artist
Chia Ying Wu is a designer, ceramicist and craftsperson from Taipei, Taiwan who designs unique tableware. Her work centers on creating aesthetically pleasing and durable vessels, viewing them not as objects to be given beauty or function but as essential elements of everyday life. For her, the act of crafting and designing is a moment of creation in itself.
Rather than serving as carriers of grand ideas or personal narratives, the objects she creates - whether a tea cup or a meal bowl - are meant to exist as quiet yet essential vessels for life itself.
