From the Palace to the Farm: Japanese Poetry for the Masses at Saugatuck Center for the Arts.  Jeremy Robinson, assistant professor of Japanese at Grand Valley State University, shares the fascinating story of how the centuries old "shared writing" form, Renga, gave birth to the popular Haiku form.  What was initially an elite form of writing was gradually taken over by a more common culture and ultimately won a much broader audience.

Free admission.
