Agent Alexis has been to 2 events so far (Philadephia and Brooklyn), and has been directly responsible for keeping me focused as I continue to plan bigger and better Guerilla Haiku adventures. In her non-haikuing time she is an actor, a social media guru, and founder of the online company and community Love + Water Designs. Check out their Indie-go-go campaign!!!

Read MoreGuerilla Tales: Atlanta
The teeming crowds exited the Midtown Arts Center en masse. One small band of Haiku Agents was awaiting them. In his best booming voice Agent Haddon (formerly a Boston tour guide) announced, “Step right up, Ladies and Gentlemen (…are you sure it wasn’t Coney Island that you learned these skills, Agent Haddon…?) “Participate in a new Public Art experience directly from NEW YORK CITY!” “New York City?!?” the crowd was curious…and found itself herded in the direction of our Agents and their chalk… “What am I...
Read MoreAgent Freeman Ng: Uncovered
When I was planning my first really-truly Guerilla Haiku event in San Francisco, I did a lot of poking around on the internets, and through that, found Freeman, the dearest man in the universe, writer, AND Mastermind of Haiku Diem. He blogs a new haiku every single day and has since July 9th, 2010…! Needless to say, I was (and am) very impressed, and invited him to the San Francisco event which he graced with his creative presence. Featured is my favorite image of his work, but there are so many more! Here’s what Freeman has to say about his haiku plans past, present and...

And, in their words, here are their thoughts on the creation of this captured moment: Jac: This was our first stop on our Haiku adventure, in front of the New York Public library, where we boldy began our journey. I believe Bryan’s hand is showing syllable #5 of Kelly’s creation! He was counting with his fingers… ohh Haiku novices we were! Kelly: I was so involved with writing my Haiku work of art that I had no idea of...

The Haiku Mistress
Actor and educator, Caley Vickerman, discovered haiku in 6th grade and they remain to this day a favorite method of expression; simple, precise and immeasurably powerful. It became her fervent wish to create events that celebrated haiku (and humanity). Thus the Guerilla Haiku Movement was born! …And the Haiku Mistress gratefully continues to celebrate! 
We are the Guerilla Haiku Movement; a cadre of artists, fun-lovers, and fools that use sidewalk chalk and the ancient Japanese poetic tradition of Haiku to tell our stories and the stories of our communities inside of one moment. Check out our events page to join us in a city near you!
