Renku, which means “linked verses”, is a Japanese form of collaborative linked verse poetry.
Established in February 1992 with the aim of promoting the rise of Renku, literature, and culture. Every autumn, the Toyama Prefectural Renku Symposium is held during the prefectural performing arts festival. The Prefectural College Toyama Area Center holds a regular meeting on the second Sunday of every month regarding the actual production of poems. The Association welcome also non-members to participate.
