# Event Details - **Event Name**: Spilling the Tea: A Tea Leaf Reading & Creative Expression Workshop - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 07 Jun, 2026 at 03:00 pm – Sun, 07 Jun, 2026 at 05:00 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: In this intentional space, we’ll engage in the peaceful ritual of tea leaf reading as a grounding and reflective practice.About this EventJoin Jezmina Von Thiele—tarot, palm, and tea leaf reader in their mixed Sinti Romani* tradition—for a gentle, supportive workshop designed for survivors to connect with their intuition and creativity. In this intentional space, we’ll engage in the peaceful ritual of tea leaf reading as a grounding and reflective practice. Together, we’ll set intentions, sip our tea in meditation, and gaze into the patterns left behind—symbols that speak from the subconscious and the spirit. Jezmina will guide participants through reading their own cups, offering insights into traditional and intuitive interpretation. From the imagery that emerges, we’ll transition into creative expression through visual art and writing. Using symbol-based prompts, participants will explore what their readings evoke—transforming inner wisdom into personal expression. This workshop honors cultural care, privacy, and empowerment. No experience with divination or art is necessary—just a willingness to explore and reflect. All materials provided, but feel free to bring a journal or notebook, or anything special that you would like to create with. *Roma are an Indian diasporic ethnic group, also known by the slur/ misnomer, Gypsies.About the instructor: Jezmina Von Thiele (they/she) is a writer, educator, performer, and fortune-teller whose work is rooted in their mixed Sinti Romani traditions.

I have been continually inspired to show how fabric has the power to dictate our personalities in an instant. By incorporating an unexpected element of cloth, I am calling attention to the ability of a specific article to define my subject’s identity. \r\nFor my red carpet series, I took a different approach than snapping photos of unsuspecting pedestrians. In May of 2013, I set the scene for a photo shoot in which anyone could participate. Since my paintings focus on the influence of attire, I was looking for a true sampling of the variety Union Square fashion has to offer. The contradiction of everyday people posing on what is normally reserved for the fashion elite is part of what drew me to the red carpet scenario. I had the opportunity to ask each subject how they their outfit made them feel and how they felt they were being perceived. I used these descriptions in their titles. \r\nMarrying unconventional mediums allows me to tinker with viewers’ perceptions. Sometimes the elements of mixed media announce their presence first, but other times the fabric is subtly transitioned with the paint, demanding a second look. Through cuts and hems, hand sewing and gluing, my goal is to make the process a smooth integration. I want onlookers to experience the independent choices, the religious mandates and the social constructs that influence both what we wear and how we view others.\r\n " } ] } ] ```
