Journey with Tea!

“Tea is more than an idealization of the form of drinking; it is a religion of the art of life.”

— Okakura Kakuzō, The Book of Tea (1906)

Top Hat Supply for Journeys is honored to welcome a local tea server whose practice is rooted in presence, devotion, and deep attunement to the spirit of tea. They will guide us into stillness—a quiet sanctuary where the tea ceremony becomes a portal to deep listening and communion with the creative spirit.

As the leaves unfurl and the water comes to a boil, we slow down and attune ourselves to the messages carried through silence and shared presence. In this space, held with reverence and intention, each sip becomes a moment of clarity, a gesture of devotion, an opportunity to hear what lies beneath the surface of thought. In this softened state, tea becomes a companion to the creative process—quietly dissolving resistance and inviting inspiration to flow freely.

We will begin promptly at 9:00am; we may not be able to accommodate those arriving late as it will disrupt the guided meditation. No knowledge or experience with anything is necessary. This is a creative sanctuary and we hold space for people to just enjoy themselves and be playful in trying something new.

Top Hat Supply for Journeys is an experimental art studio and nonprofit seeking to reconnect people with the creative spirit. We believe when we strengthen the creative in ourselves we create a world with more possibility for beauty and connection.
