Registration is open for “The Doors of Perception – Reading and Writing Haiku” with instructor Marsh Muirhead on Saturday July 29 from 10am – 1pm in Watermark Art Center’s Education Studio. In this workshop we will discover, through reading and writing haiku, how these magical little poems expand our ability to really see the world around us, discover the invisible connections between ourselves and the natural world. Through examples and exercises we will see how haiku function as memoir, meditation, journal, photograph, mini-narrative and as prompts to other kinds of writing.The class is appropriate to all levels of writing experience, and to anyone interested in exploring the powerful connection of images to emotion and creativity. Fee $30.Watermark galleries are free and open to the public Monday – Saturday from 10 to 5pm and located at 505 Bemidji Avenue N. in Bemidji, Minnesota, 218-444-7570.
