Karuizawa New Art Museum will be holding a tanka poetry writing workshop. This year marks the 34th time the workshop has been held, and the venue will be the museum's restaurant and cafe, Ristorante Pietrino & KEYS'CAFE. You will be given one drink to write your tanka. Even if you have never written a tanka before, the instructor will give you detailed advice, so you can enjoy the workshop in a relaxed atmosphere. You can write the poem you have written on a work card and take it home with you. Why not connect the words with today and write your own poem? First-time participants are also welcome! We look forward to your participation.
