SCHSG at the Pacific Asia Museum Family Festival

The Southern California Haiku Study Group had a haiku table at the Family Festival at the Pacific Asia Museum on Sunday, April 22, 2007. The table was manned by Debbie Kolodji and then by Kath Wilson.

We had coloring book style pages of kites with an Issa haiku for the children to color, copies of our April kigo list and notecards for those adults who wanted to try their hands at haiku.

Kath also brought nice cardstock paper, paper, glue, and copies of Pacific Asia Museum brochures so that the children could cut out photos of the museum and glue them on the card. Kath then composed a special haiku for each child with their name in it. It was an afternoon filled with smiling children and the haiku table was a popular one for parents and children alike.
