When you hear haiku, do you think 5-7-5 syllables and maybe something funny about cats? Kristen Lindquist hopes to make you think again. She will offer an introduction to this 400-year-old poetic form through a reading of her own award-winning work, sharing along the way some history--from its roots in 17th century Japan to how it is currently practiced in the US--as well as how to enjoy reading and begin writing haiku. 

This is an in-person event to be held at the Symmetree Studio in Camden, ME. Open to all by donation, but space is limited, so please REGISTER HERE
