1. Lahaina Arts Guild Sheraton Black Rock Keiki Student Art Show, December 17, 2024 to January 1, 2025, 8AM to 8PM. Over 100 keiki artwork entrants. The Show will showcase artwork by students from Sacred Hearts School and King Kamehameha Ill Elementary, two schools tragically lost in the 2023 Lahaina fire.

 

2. Keiki art instruction at King Kamehameha III Elementary at the new campus. For the next school year, we are scheduling 2 days per week with 4 classes each day.

 

3. We will continue to teach art/science classes at Sacred Heart School in coordination with the school’s art department. We are scheduling 3 days per week with 1 class each day.

 

4. Music - In our music program at Princess Nahi'ena'ena Elementary School, which is the first in the school's history, we are currently teaching music to the entire student body in multiple classes every two weeks, preschool through 5th grade two days a week. The classes are an opportunity for children to learn to read, compose and perform music, which enhances performance in many other school disciplines. The children are wildly enthusiastic about these classes as they are able to participate in floor mat note exercises as they learn to play and write music. The music program is 8 classes per day, two days a week meaning 1,920 music instructions per month. The classes including the Hawaiian language immersion class, are so popular the teachers often double up their students (one class will be added to another for a music class with 50 children).

 

Also scheduled for next year are our Summer Camps, and we hope to once again partner with HuliHia, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Maui, the University of Hawaii and the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration. We will also be continuing with our popular PaintOuts, which are frequently held in conjunction with the art/science classes at Sacred Heart School. The area surrounding the new Sacred Hearts campus in Kaanapali has many dramatic locations for plein air painting. All post-fire classes are currently being held in our westside schools.

 

We plan to re-open sign-up classes to the general public as soon as we can.
