The Tea Smith

Council Bluffs author Ryan T. Pozzi will celebrate the publication of The Mess That Made Them: How History’s Greatest Artists Failed, Floundered, and Made Something Brilliant Anyway with “Book(ed) at The Tea Smith,” a seated book launch and tea-pairing event on Thursday, September 3, 2026, at 6:30 p.m.

Hosted by The Tea Smith in Omaha, the launch will combine conversation about the book with a tea service inspired by its subjects. Each ticket includes traditional teas, a samovar preparation, a mocktail, and an affogato dessert tea creation.

Tickets are $20 and include admission to the event and all five tea pairings. The book is not included in the ticket price but will be available for purchase.

Guests may reserve a copy of The Mess That Made Them while ordering their tickets or preorder the book directly from The Bookworm Omaha for pickup at the event.

Space is limited, and the event is expected to sell out well before September 3. Tickets may be purchased by calling The Tea Smith at 402-393-7070.
