Winter Haiku: A One-Hour Creative Writing Experience

Step inside from the cold and warm up your creativity.
This one-hour Winter Haiku Workshop is a relaxed, beginner-friendly writing experience where you’ll explore the beauty of the season through simple, powerful poetry. Using guided prompts, sensory imagery, and gentle instruction, participants will learn how to craft haiku that capture winter’s quiet moments. From falling snow and early sunsets to steaming mugs and frozen sidewalks.

No writing experience is needed. Whether you’re new to poetry or simply looking for a peaceful, inspiring way to spend an hour, you’ll leave with several original winter haiku and a renewed sense of creative confidence. Expect a cozy atmosphere, meaningful reflection, and the joy of turning ordinary moments into art.

Come for the poetry, stay for the calm, leave with words you didn’t know you were carrying.
