About the event

Engage: The Art & History of Haiku

Local poet Stuart Henson, looks at the art and history of Haiku, a popular type of short form poetry which originates in Japan.

Taking inspiration from Stuart’s latest poetry collection “A Handful of Wasps” and the wonderful illustrations by Houghton -based artist Bill Sanderson, we'll be discussing the smallest of poems, often inspired by nature, which cultivate the art of looking.

FREE talk (donations welcome). Adults only. Booking required.
