Can you think of a moment that reflects everything you love about that time of year? The snow gently falling. A flower blossoming. The leaves bursting with color. Join poet Jennifer Y. Montgomery on a journey through the history of haiku and other forms of Japanese micro poetry. From frogs to Zen meditation to clandestine feudal love letters. She’ll then guide us through the basics of writing and illustrating haiku. It’s much more than just counting lines and syllables; each haiku captures a season and a single moment in nature. Think about your favorite season and come prepared to write your own haiku. \nBiography\nJennifer Y. Montgomery is a writer\, artist\, storyteller\, attorney\, and pie baker who lives in Connecticut with her daughter. Her poems have appeared in Poetry Quarterly\, Enclave\, Haiku Journal\, 50 Haiku\, Failed Haiku\, Red Weather\, and elsewhere. Her creative nonfiction has appeared in Hinterland. She has told many stories on stage and has been featured on the Mouth storytelling podcast. She believes that truth is stranger than fiction and authenticity is the highest art form.

This campaign reminds us that libraries\, small and large\, serve as a cornerstone for our communities. In addition to well-loved books\, many libraries offer innovative programs that promote lifelong learning. \nAs we know\, public libraries are known for books and research materials\, but they also offer many programs that promote lifelong learning\, connect patrons to technology\, and advance our knowledge. \n#LibraryGivingDay is a one-day fundraising event with the goal of encouraging people who depend on and enjoy public libraries to donate to their individual library system. And in turn\, that support will go toward the incredible programs\, services and materials provided by local libraries all over the country. \nDonate here: https://mysticnoanklibrary.networkforgood.com/projects/164112-2022-2023-annual-fundraising-campaign URL:https://thisismystic.com/event/library-giving-day/ LOCATION:40 Library St\, Mystic\, CT 06355\, 40 Library Street\, Mystic\, CT\, 06355 CATEGORIES:Library ORGANIZER;CN="Mystic &%3B Noank Library":MAILTO:kkenney@mysticnoanklibrary.org GEO:41.3543426;-71.974634 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=40 Library St Mystic CT 06355 40 Library Street Mystic CT 06355;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=40 Library Street:geo:-71.974634,41.3543426 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230413T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230413T193000 DTSTAMP:20261110T204525 CREATED:20230313T132222Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230313T132222Z UID:10007223-1681410600-1681414200@thisismystic.com SUMMARY:Titanic: The Connecticut Connections DESCRIPTION:When the Titanic sank on April 15\, 1912\, there were 33 passengers onboard with Connecticut connections.
