Chado Urasenke Tankokai Singapore Association was established in June 1991 as a membership non-profit organization and registered by the Singaporean government.
Its aims are to engage the broader community in study of Chado and to promote a better understanding and appreciation of the rich cultural heritage of Japan as expressed in Chado in Singapore.

In 2008, Urasenke Foundation Konnichian provided funding for the construction of the tearoom in Liang Court to serve as the centre for its activities.

The Chado Urasenke Tankokai Singapore Association is open to anyone
who is interested in the Urasenke tradition of Chado, the Japanese “Way of Tea.”   The Association offers tea gatherings (chakai ) and tea-related events such as lectures, workshops and demonstrations to explore the multifaceted world of Chado.
