Join the Hoosic River Watershed Association for Haiku on the Hoosic Celebration on May 25, 10am-12noon at TOURISTS in North Adams, MA. Enjoy music and readings.

The event is part of this year’s Haiku on the Hoosic project. HooRWA invites everyone in the community to celebrate our river by writing haiku inspired by the river and its surroundings. Write your haiku on paper about two-and-a-half inches by eight inches. Illustrations welcome. You can leave poems at the North Adams or Milne libraries or mail them or drop them off at the HooRWA office: 906 Main Street, PO Box 667, Williamstown, MA 01267

Please submit your poems at one of these sites no later than May 15. This will give enough time to laminate the haiku so they will hold up to the weather. Haiku will be hung for a week on the suspension bridge in back of TOURISTS, 915 State Road, North Adams, MA.

This program is supported by HooRWA, Tourists, and by a grant from the Cultural Council of Northern Berkshire, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.

DATE: Saturday, May 25

TIME: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
