GHM wins Jersey City Art Eat Up!!
ProArts in Jersey City is an organization that cares about the intersection of Art and Community. Clearly they are kindred spirits! They host Quarterly Art Eat Up events where a number of artists present their projects to a host of assembled community members at a communal dinner. At the end of the evening everyone votes on one project that they want to support. And the profits from the evening go to fund the project with the most votes. There was a small but attentive and energized crowd in attendance. 5 wonderful projects; Guerilla Haiku (of course), Not Yo’ Mama’s...

Read MoreAgent Alexis Fedor: Uncovered
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.

At our very first Haiku event, this team really embraced the spirit of engagement. This is one of my favorite photos from their day of adventures. 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...

Wave sounds overhead - But it isn’t the ocean - the Tides of Transit On a bright and shining Saturday in Fort Greene Park we assembled- a crew of chalk revelers, most of whom had ne’er chalked before. We caught on quick. Between the farmer’s market, the touch football game, and the kids on wheeled objects, we were kept very busy. Then we divided into our GHM record 6 Neighborhood teams; Downtown Brooklyn, DUMBO, Fort Greene, Park Slope, Prospect Heights and Williamsburg. Each neighborhood has their own set of remarkable images available in our Flickr gallery for your...

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!
