CommuniTEA Infusion is a mobile tea house that travels to neighbourhoods around our city — creating a “pop-up” town square where people come together, get to know each other and strengthen connections. In today’s fast-paced society, fewer people are connected to their communities in meaningful ways. CommuniTEA Infusion becomes a gathering place for people, creating opportunities for meaningful exc

hange. People with disabilities are the key leaders of this initiative taking the role of community builders in Edmonton neighbourhoods. What happens at the events is as unique as every neighbourhood, from tea with naturally flowing conversation and music to tea while engaging in dialogue about an important topic that matters to their community. The nature of this initiative is such that it requires the contributions of community members to make it work. The essence of a CommuniTEA Infusion event is to give, connect and contribute. Project Objectives:

- Host a 25-30 events annually in Edmonton neighbourhoods
- Provide part time employment opportunities for 5 people with disabilities and their allies who host events
- Break down barriers to community connecting
Spread awareness about the valuable contributions people with disabilities make in our communities


Impact:

- People with disabilities become community builders, overturning negative stereotypes
- Strengthened relationships between neighbours
- Build community diversity, opening doors to participatory citizenship for all

And just like that, the 2025 Tea Van season has come to an end!

To celebrate, we gathered for some pizza, shared our favorite memories, and created a special art piece, made with all our hands, symbolizing how much teamwork and community mean to us.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported us this season and came out to our events. Your love and energy make everything we do worthwhile!

We’ll be back in May 2026, if you reach out by email or phone before then, we’ll get back to you closer to our opening date!

Huge thanks to everyone who’s come out and supported the van this month 🩵

We’re almost at the season’s end, but a few events are still ahead. It’s been amazing to see how something as simple as sharing some iced tea can create space for connection, conversation, and community.
