Join artist Kay Kojima to discover how to make your own Japanese tea bowl (chawan), a beautiful, versatile vessel that can be enjoyed for matcha or daily use as a small bowl. No prior experience is necessary—just bring your curiosity and love for tea culture.

All materials and tools are provided, and glazing & firing fees are included. Finished pieces will be available for pickup 3–4 weeks after the workshop.

Artist: Kay KojimaKay is a Japanese-American ceramicist, born and raised in NYC. After many years working at Interior Design magazine, she continued to pursue creative projects, eventually discovering ceramics in 2009.

*Chawan, the tea bowls used in chanoyu, have been crafted since the 16th century. Although a chawan may appear to be a simple bowl for drinking tea, it is often referred to as a "hand-held universe," with great attention paid to the harmonious interplay of curve, volume, rim, and foot, as well as how well it feels in the hands.
