If that’s right up your alley, you won’t want to miss this Chinese New Year Get-Together at Singapore Zen Cultural Centre – a tea appreciation workshop where you can immerse yourself in the festive spirit – all for free, on 9th February 2025.

As its name suggests, the centre’s main focus is all things zen. It offers 2 main programmes: educational and holistic growth.

The educational classes can range from painting to dancing, all hosted in a serene environment that helps you stay productive while keeping things relaxed.

Holistic growth programmes focus more on mental well-being, offering a chance to unwind, reflect, and connect with others who are also seeking some healing time.
