As of the 2010 festival, we added a new category for haiku in Spanish: Sumisiones Regionales de Haiku en Español. Note that we have a regional focus for all categories except one, the Jane Reichhold International Prize, which is open to adults planet-wide. All other categories are open to residents of Mendocino, Humboldt, Lake, and Sonoma counties in Northern California. For more specifics, please see our Submission Guidelines. Submissions are now closed for 2013.
