April 8 – One Hour Haiku Workshop for Kids, ages 3 - 13, Merritt Bookstore, 10:30-11:30AM
Join Kira on the lawn outside the shop to read and write haiku! The three lines of haiku center around a moment, and perception– there is (contrary to most American teaching) flexibility of syllables and ways to help us all get to the heart of something we have seen, realized, or pondered. All materials provided. (Event will be held indoors if needed.)
April 12 – Open Mic Night at the Millbrook Library, 6 PM
Come with any writing– poetry, short story, essay, creative nonfiction, manifesto, screed, or even a guitar and song. Readers will read on a first-come basis, so sign up on the library website early to ensure a slot! (https://millbrooklibrary.org/) or call 845-677-3611.
