SUMMARY:TRADITIONAL ANCIENT JAPANESE TEA CEREMONY MAY 31
DESCRIPTION:KALAHEO — The Lawai International Center will host a traditional ancient Japanese tea ceremony presented by the Urasenke Kaua’i Kyoukai Tea Association on Saturday\, May 31 at 10:30 a.m.\, noon\, and 1:30 p.m. in Kalaheo. \nThis rare event will be held in the center’s Hall of Compassion\, a hand-carved replica of 13th-century architecture that was built by the hands and hearts of masters in Asia and volunteers on Kaua’i. As the tea ceremony members mature\, this might be their last year to offer this experience. \nThere will be 25 seats available per session.  Reservations are required. The suggested minimum donation is $40.  For reservations\, text or call (808) 639-5952 or email info@lawaicenter.org. \nThe Lawai International Center\, a non-profit community project\, is an archaeological and cultural treasure in a valley that has long been recognized as a healing sanctuary. In 1904\, the first generation of Japanese immigrants built 88 shrines replicating an ancient pilgrimage of 88 temples in Shikoku\, Japan. Today\, the Center is the only such site existing outside of Japan and is one of the oldest Buddhist temple sites in the country.  \nOur mission remains steadfast   — to preserve and nurture the land and its rich cultural heritage\, extending a heartfelt invitation to all who wish to experience its essence through the spirit of compassion and aloha. For more information about the center visit www.lawaicenter.org.
