The Anderson Gardens Tea Study group is a group of individuals interested in learning more about Chado—the Japanese Way of Tea. All are welcome to attend.

We follow the Urasenke School of Chado under the leadership of Sensei Kimiko Gunji. The group meets regularly at the Anderson Japanese Gardens in Rockford, IL and attracts students from Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin.

Step into the tranquil world of Chado, the Way of Tea, during our Japanese Summer Festival, July 26 & 27. Guided by Professor Kimiko Gunji and the Anderson Japanese Gardens Tea Study Group, these traditional tea ceremonies offer a rare opportunity to witness and participate in this timeless cultural art.

Choose from three unique settings—the serene Guest House, the intimate Tea Hut, or the peaceful Gazebo—each offering a different tea experience rooted in mindfulness, beauty, and connection.

Advance registration is required, and space is limited. Tea ceremony tickets include Garden admission for the day of your ceremony.

Learn more and register at: www.andersongardens.org/japanese-summer-festival/

Registration closes Wednesday, July 23 at 5:00 PM.
