On select days in April, local poets will head to Lan Su to lead craft workshops and share excerpts of their own work. I can't think of a better place to think about poetry—just picture yourself grabbing a treat from the teahouse, peeking at Penjing, and watching bright koi glide through Lake Zither while words wash over you. Sounds pretty magical, right? The April 28 workshop, "Quest over a millennium: Appropriating the Ancient Poetry of China," caters to those who "appreciate the tranquility and depth of classical Chinese poetry." by Lindsay Costello
