Dr. Millie Creighton recently spoke at a special symposium sponsored by UCLA, USC, and Japan House in Los Angeles. Her presentation about the Japanese Tea Ceremony specifically references the course she teaches here at UBC Anthropology (ANTH 435). Dr. Creighton also participated in a panel presentation on teaching about Tea and The Way of Tea (Chado)in academic context.
An article about the symposium and featuring Dr. Creighton will be in an upcoming issue of Tanko Magazine.
“Tanko Magazine is published by the Urasenke Foundation,” says Creighton. “They are one of the largest tea ceremony organizations with 113 foundations in 38 countries. The magazine is read by people around the world, all of whom study and/or practice the art of Japanese Tea Ceremony.”
