February Tea Meet, and Looking forward to March, and April....

During our February Tea Meet, we heard a presentation regarding why the correct name of the East Sea is "East Sea," not Sea of Japan.  Historically it has always been known as the East Sea internationally and no known body of water that lies between two countries are called by one country's name.  I hope the East Sea regain its proper name soon.

Our March Tea Meet will take place at Lee Young Hee museum on March 8th, Thursday, 6:30pm.  This will be a special meeting where we will be celebrating publication of the Museum catalog.  We will have delicious tea along with a feast of food and entertainment.  There are only limited number of spaces, so please reserved your space soon by emailing me or to the museum.  (Please see attached flyer for more information.)

Our April Tea Meet will take place at the Urasenke Chanoyu Center, www.UrasenkeNY.org, on Saturday, April 14th at 1:30pm.  We can only accept first 20 people.  We also need to pay and reserve the space ahead.  Please bring $15 checks, payable to Urasenke, Inc., by our March tea gathering.  If you cannot make to our March Tea Meet, but plan to attend our Urasenke meet, please mail $15 check to Jongsuk Sung at the Lee Young Hee Museum of Korean Culture, the check must be received before our March Tea Meet.  Thanks.
