Photos and event submitted to Snapd. Website code: pewwsxx.

There are many misconceptions about Haiku. No, Haiku is not simple, it is not a 5-7-5, but just a short poem of three lines.

"Haiku are short three-line poems with a 5-7-5 syllable structure that use sensory language to capture a feeling or image ... Basho, who is considered to be the greatest haiku poet of all time, said that each haiku should be said a thousand times on the tongue. Draft and redraft every poem until the meaning is perfectly expressed. Remember that you don't have to adhere to the 5-7-5 syllable pattern." ~ WikiHow.

Finding the beauty, the craft and the way of Haiku will change your attitudes toward life, nature and the world. Come and find out more ...

In this workshop, you will:
? Learn Haiku with Light, with Mind and with Fun
? Appreciate Haiku through multimedia and matching
? Discover how to express yourself through Haiku
? Make a small Haiku book

Instructors:
? Claudia Radmore: Ottawa poet/editor (Haiku Canada)
? Anna Yin: Mississauga's Poet Laureate

Space is limited. Please register by email: anna.yin@gmail.com

Age-Friendly Communities:

Housing Options for Older Canadians
Webinar Part 1

Arlene Etchen, CMHC

Webinar Part 1: Thursday, September 22, 2016 - 1:00 - 2:00 pm
Webinar Part 2: Thursday, October 20, 2016 - 1:00 - 2:00 pm

FREE Webinar

Webinars are hosted by Age-Friendly Communities Planning Outreach Initiative.

The Ontario Seniors' Secretariat has partnered with the University of Waterloo, the Ontario Interdisciplinary Council for Aging and Health (OICAH) and the Seniors Health Knowledge Network (SHKN) to administer a two-year Age-Friendly Community (AFC) Planning Outreach Initiative. This initiative is designed to help communities, including AFC Planning Grant recipients to:
? Increase awareness of age-friendly planning principles
? Share best practices
? Start, continue, evaluate and improve on their AFC action plans.

Seniors now make up the fastest-growing age group in Canada and the majority of them want to age-in-place. The challenge is that most people don't proactively plan how to age in place and end up having to leave their homes when their health declines.

In part one of this two-part seminar, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) will share trends, insights and case studies about housing options for older Canadians.

Click here to register for webinar.

During this webinar, Arlene Etchen, the presenter, will:
? Provide an overview of demographic trends and what it means to the housing market
? Share insights from market research about what seniors want in housing
? Highlight real life examples of seniors housing options in Ontario

A resource package will be provided to participants following the event.

Webinar: Housing Options for Older Canadians Part 2 will be held on Thursday, October 20, 2016 at 1:00 pm.

About the presenter: Arlene Etchen, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation's (CMHC) Knowledge Transfer Consultant in Ontario - "Arlene has been working in the urban planning and energy sectors for more than 15 years. In her role as Knowledge Transfer Consultant, Arlene is focused on engaging with professionals in the housing industry, academics and provincial and municipal governments to ensure access to the latest and most relevant housing information from CMHC. She is currently focused in the areas of integrated accessible and adaptable design, solutions for aging in place and designing for housing affordability." ~ Info from Age-Friendly Communities Planning Outreach Initiative.
