Quick Preview - Season 2022 - 2023
Welcome to the First Saturday PDX 2022 - 2023 season! This collection of programs will be a hybrid group, with in person excursions and online presentations. China-related subjects for the season involve a trip to the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art in Eugene, a demonstration on the traditional tea ceremony, exploring the poetry inscriptions in the Lan Su Garden, the role of women in the the history of tea in China, the story of the Lone Fir Cemetery, followed by a half hour of further discussion and socializing in our virtual First Saturday PDX Tea House for the online programs.
