Matcha & Mindfulness: A Half-Day Creative Retreat
May 16th | 9:30AM-1:30PM | $125
Step away from the pace of everyday life and join us for a half-day retreat centered on creativity, ritual, and intentional rest. This collaborative experience brings together artists and wellness practitioners from our community for a morning of making, movement, and mindful connection.
Together with Sora Matcha, we’ll explore the beauty of slowing down through hands-on creativity and shared ritual. Guests will hand-build their own ceramic matcha bowl, learning simple clay techniques to shape a functional piece you’ll use in your future tea practice. You’ll also take part in a guided matcha workshop, where you’ll learn the basics of preparing and enjoying matcha with care and intention.
Throughout the retreat, you’ll move through a series of calming experiences designed to nourish both body and mind. Guests may choose to participate in a gentle yoga session led by Samantha or opt into a quiet art journaling experience guided by Sadie, offering two different ways to slow down and connect with the present moment.
Midway through the retreat, guests will pause to enjoy a thoughtfully prepared brunch from KBee Bakery, creating time to relax, connect, and enjoy the community forming around the table.
Activities may take place together as a group or through relaxed, rotating stations depending on the size of the group, allowing the experience to flow naturally and comfortably.
This retreat is designed to be welcoming, restorative, and deeply creative — a chance to reconnect with yourself while making something meaningful with your hands.

• Hand-building your own ceramic matcha bowl with guidance from TSC staff
• A guided matcha workshop and tasting experience with Sora Matcha

What You Will Love:
