In August, 2017, the 77th Nisei Week Festival was held in the Little Tokyo area of downtown Los Angeles. As part of the festival, we, Urasenke Tankokai Los Angeles Association presented chado demonstration at Japanese American Cultural and Community Center on Saturday, July 19 and Sunday July 20. As many as 700 people came to visit us during the weekend, including the Consul General of Japan in LA, Nisei Queen and her court, cultural organizations such as the Ikebana Teachers’ Association. At the tea service area, guests appreciated a bowl of tea in the serene atmosphere, away from the bustle of the festival outside, enjoying the view of the bamboo garden through the window.
