Tea ceremony and flower arrangement club

Tea ceremony and flower arrangement club

Through tea ceremony and flower arrangement, students learn Japanese culture and the spirit of "omotenashi" (hospitality). The tea ceremony is Urasenke, and the flower arrangement is Sagagoryu. Every year, outside of the university, the club also participates in volunteer activities such as a service tea ceremony at Nozaki Kannon and a tea ceremony experience for children. On campus, tea ceremonies and flower exhibitions are held at the university festival and open campus. Most members started tea ceremony at university. By joining the tea ceremony and flower arrangement club, you can have fun while learning to be considerate of others and how to behave. Beginners and those who are interested are all welcome, so please come and visit us!
