Socrates x Noguchi Field Guide: Exploring a “New Nature”

Saturday, September 3, 2022
11 am–1 pm

“To the artist, going to the moon was nothing new. I’ve been up there all the time.” Isamu Noguchi

Join art educator Joe Tokumasu Field at Socrates Sculpture Park to celebrate the moon through a haiku writing workshop inspired by the Japanese Tsukimi Festival. Try a mooncake, listen to koto music, and look at Isamu Noguchi’s lunar sculptures to motivate your writing. All ages welcome; no previous writing experience is necessary. Participants will be given a free pass to visit The Noguchi Museum after the workshop. Registration will open Saturday, August 13.
