Closing Tea Ceremony for Presence of Mind curated exhibition
Facilitated by Lachlan Warner
For an hour we will consider the beauty of tea, and the reality of death and dying. Participants will be invited to choose a cup that speaks to them, and take tea with it . Afterwards, participants are invited to take the cup home, if they like.
We will also discuss our responses to the cups and their history
