We are kicking off another enjoyable series of “Tea with Culture” gatherings. “This twenty-fourth session will be titled ‘Folk Tales and Beliefs — Part 3. Part.” It is important—and so necessary—to recall the stories that give structure to our culture, to become aware of the beliefs that accompany us throughout our lives, and to remember the people who came before us and who passed on so much wisdom to us. Come share this beautiful magic that we all carry within us. And, of course, there will be our lovely cup of tea to warm the soul.” Facilitated and organized by Inês Alvim and Laura Bonito Supported by: j.f.m. * Entrance through the right side door Fill out the form and join us!
