2026 TeaFestPDX
Education Proposals

​

TeaFestPDX 2026 presenter applications are officially full!

 

Education is at the heart of TeaFestPDX, and this year’s programming brings an even wider variety of classes to explore. There is truly something for every interest and every level of experience. You might find yourself learning from the Issoan Tea School, discovering new cultural perspectives in The History of Tea in Mexico, or exploring wellness traditions through Ayurvedic herbal tea classes. Instructional tastings invite you to slow down, savor each cup, and deepen your understanding alongside knowledgeable guides. With so many thoughtfully curated sessions, TeaFestPDX celebrates the richness of tea and the incredible knowledge within our community.

​

The classes at TeaFestPDX are a highlight every year, and they fill up quickly. Our presenters bring genuine passion, generosity, and a love of sharing what they know. Each session offers not only learning, but connection, conversation, and of course, plenty of tea. It is this spirit of warmth and community that makes these classes such a memorable part of the festival.

​

Class schedule will be released in May.
