Learn the form of traditional haiku and then explore and write inside the beautiful grounds of The Kampong to test what you've learned. Afterwards, read your brand-new haiku on stage.

A station will be set up to learn the traditional art of Japanese flower arrangement, using tropical foliage from The Kampong itself.

Japanese foods, Tito's Handmade Vodka cocktails and beer from Biscayne Bay Brewing Company will be available to taste and try.
