Tea Carp

Tea Carp A mobile art installation that creates a space for people to fill their cups, connect, & merry-make.

Inspired by the traditional "Yatai" ramen carts of Fukuoka, Japan, the work of Tagami Haruhiko, and the philosophy of the Tea Bus/Edna Lu by Guisepi—this project is a mobilized art installation that seeks to provide a safe ground for persons to merry-make, fill their cups, connect, and share human experiences together. A wooden tea house, which only leaves memories behind and is intended to bring

beings together around points of interest. Featuring a pop-up tea lounge, amplified sound, and a "Bring Your Own Cup" (BYOC) tea service.

A wooden tea house, which only leaves memories behind and is intended to bring beings together around points of interest. 🍃

Featuring a pop-up tea lounge, sound, movement, activiTEAs, and “Bring Your Own Cup” (BYOC) themed tea services. Each tea is made one cup at a time as we hold an appreciation for “slow service”. We savor time, experience, and one another; giving our guests a taste of this with their tea. Once they hand over their cup, visitors are invited to spend qualiTEA time with those around them.💕

We have a few open crew positions available. If you are interested in joining us, please fill out the form below to the best of your ability. ✨
