DESCRIPTION:Come enjoy a traditional Japanese tea ceremony and flower arrangement demonstration!\n\nKado (華道) is one of the traditional Japanese art which flowers and plants are specially arranged in a vase for appreciation.

This school has four main forms of arrangement: Traditional\, Arrangement\, Moribana\, and San’ya-so.  There also are many patterns in each four forms.  Moribana Form will be demonstrated on June 19th.  This style configures flowers using the pin holder\, called Kenzan.\n\nChado (茶道) as known as the Japanese tea ceremony is one of the traditional cultural activities including preparation and presentation of matcha.  Matcha is powdered green tea and the tea made of it.  Chado is developed in 16th century by Sen-no Rikyu and has entertained people since then.  The spirit of Chado is described by 和敬清寂 (Wa Kei Sei Jaku\; harmony\, respect\, purity and tranquility).  The host serves a bowl of matcha sincerely and the guest takes it with thankfulness. There are several manners to serve and drink the tea\, but don’t worry! We are going to demonstrate simplified tea preparation and show you how to taste it. This event is perfect for beginners.\n\nIn partnership with the South East Michigan Japanese Language Meetup Group.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Abstraction: A Graphic Study
DESCRIPTION:Chicago-based artist Natasha Kohli uses abstract acrylic paintings to convey her messages of positivity and love by pouring that energy into each piece. As a self-taught artist\, Kohli is not bound to school taught rules but rather follows instinct and spontaneity. This also allows her to freely create her own processes. Moments of introspection and feelings of acceptance are what Kohli wishes to offer viewers of her work\, and these goals are inspired by her deep love of spirituality and Bikram yoga.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Concrete Ephemera: Street Art Captured
DESCRIPTION:David Zinn has been drawing on sidewalks for well over a decade\, using chalk and charcoal to create anamorphic 3D creatures which\, when viewed at a precise angle\, appear to exist in the real world. They often incorporate parts of the landscape and found objects\, such as cracks in concrete or leaves on the ground. He is inspired by a desire to place cheerful art underfoot in unexpected places and to embrace the temporary nature of all things. For this exhibit\, photographs of his street art installations will be on display. Zinn is a lifelong Michigander with a degree in creative writing from the U-M Residential College\, and he worked for many years as a children’s radio host on WCBN and Michigan Radio. Zinn will also give an artist demonstration alongside a musical performance by Magdalen Fossum in the University Hospital Courtyard on Thurs\, July 21\, 2016 from 12:00-1:00 pm.
