Illuminating The Heart Of Tea

Jessica Marshall is a tea artist, experiential designer, and founder of The Way of BeauTea, whose work explores tea as a medium for presence, beauty, and human connection. For the past five years, she has served tea at Lake Atitlán and around the world, creating immersive tea spaces for festivals, retreats, private ceremonies, public gatherings, and community events.

At Lake Atitlán, Jessica has served tea at renowned gathering spaces including Eagle’s Nest and Gaia Dance Temple. Beyond Guatemala, she has co-created traveling tea temples and pop-up lounges throughout Oregon, Austin, San Diego, Colorado, Asheville, Tulum, and beyond. Her specialty is transforming unexpected and highly stimulating environments into intimate spaces of beauty, ritual, and belonging, inviting people to slow down and connect more deeply with themselves, one another, and the plants being shared.

Through The Way of BeauTea, Jessica explores the art of the tea lounge, weaving together her backgrounds in visual art, design, ceremony, hospitality, and event production to create experiences rooted in plant relationship, presence, and the simple magic of gathering around tea.
