In commemoration of the establishment of The Lillian Maeda Memorial Tea and Haiku Collection, the Wailuku Public Library, 251 High St., will hold a demonstration of a traditional Japanese tea ceremony from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. Monday.

Lillian Maeda, who passed away in 2016, was a vibrant contributor to Maui’s tea and haiku community for many years.

This collection consists of an array of books and periodicals covering various aspects of traditional Japanese arts and culture, with a focus on the formal tea ceremony as well as haiku poetry.

Collected from and donated by members of the Maui tea and haiku communities, this collection will be maintained for the expressed benefits to local enthusiasts and students of these two art forms.

Both English and Japanese language volumes are represented in the collection. All volumes will be available for public reading in the Wailuku Public Library’s Research/ Reference section.
