International Tea Day + To the Beauteaful You
Celebrate sipping cuppas with tea tastings, a mini makers market and tea-focused art.
Overview
One of life's simplest, purest pleasures gets a day to shine when May 21 rolls around each year — and in 2023, Brisbane Art Design is celebrating. The River City's annual creative festival is pouring cuppas to mark International Tea Day, taking over Fortitude Valley's Ring a Bell with both a one-day shindig and a weeklong exhibition.
On the date itself — a Sunday, nicely — the Brunswick Street spot will host a special tea tasting, as well as a mini makers market, with both running from 9am–1pm. From 11–11.45am, you can also listen to an in-conversation chat about tea over brunch.
Whether you can make it to this communi-tea focused day or not, art showcase To the Beauteaful You keeps the celebrations hot from Sunday, May 21–Saturday, May 27. Here, you'll peer at pieces by up-and-coming photographer Lam Ha Tran, ceramic artist Georgia Richards, and visual artists Tanya Ashworth and Sariah Christensen. Yes, the theme is tea.
The exhibition runs from 7am–2pm Monday–Friday, and from 8am–1pm on Saturday.
