SUMMARY:Materials Studio
DESCRIPTION:Families are invited to play\, build\, deconstruct\, reimagine\, and discover the life cycle of everyday materials in our built environment with our education team. Inspired by materials in the exhibit With Every Fiber: Pigment\, Stone\, Glass\, families can explore the unique properties of these materials and use their imaginations to create new applications for them. \nOnOctober 11\, 2025\, Grace Farms unveiled a new iteration of the With Every Fiber exhibit\, which offers insights into forced labor in the building materials supply chain. A portion of With Every Fiber was adapted and included in the Intelligens CANON at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia\, curated by Carlo Ratti\, open through November 2025. \nMaterials Studio is for ages 4 – 11 with adult caregivers. This is free and included with daily registration.

SUMMARY:Journey into the World of Tea | Tea 101
DESCRIPTION:Tea aficionados are invited into the Pavilion to sample teas while learning about the basics of tea varietals. \nLed by Tea Expert Frank Kwei\, this tranquil and in-depth exploration of tea offers guests a taste of notable varietals from cultures around the world\, with demonstrations and more. \n  \nAbout Frank Kwei\nFrank currently serves in the role of Tea Expert and Educator focusing on special projects and tea programs at Grace Farms. He has been with Grace Farms Foundation since its inception\, starting as the Director of Hospitality where he served as a welcoming ambassador for Grace Farms. In that role\, he often provided a first introduction to Grace Farms and its work by pausing over tea in the Pavilion\, a reflective space in the River building with 360-degree views of natural landscapes. \nIn his current role\, Frank is Grace Farms’ resident Tea Expert\, where he welcomes the public with a simple cup of tea and invites them into a deeper appreciation of the intentionality of SANAA’s architecture and the impact of the Foundation’s work to advance good in the world. \nBefore joining Grace Farms\, Frank co-founded and managed a boutique tea company based in Brooklyn\, New York\, and spent several years focused on the sourcing and supply chains for tea ingredients. Frank has brought that experience to the Foundation’s work on ethical and sustainable supply chains across sectors\, including tea\, coffee\, food\, and architecture. Frank hosts a wide variety of tea education programs on the vast world of tea\, its history\, and on the ethical and sustainable production of tea and coffee. This serves as a critical entry point to educating people about ethical and sustainable supply chains in other fields.
