Hawaii Landscapes Art Workshop

On June 29, 2013 artist Andrea Charuk from the Honolulu Museum of Art shared some great information on the Honolulu Museum of showcase of works that celebrate Hawaii's natural beauty, as seen through the eyes of 20th century American artists Georgia O'Keeffe and Ansel Adams. Hawaii is full of extraordinary natural sites that we can recognize, protect, and celebrate through art! Honolulu Museum of Art intern, Andrea Charuk, taught the basic techniques in using oil pastel and watercolor and participants created their own landscapes.

Making Earth Ovens

On May 25th, 2013 MLC worked with Ka'ala Farms to continue making an Earth Oven that we had started at the farm.  We had created the base at a previous workshop and added the top to it in this one.  Participants used sand to create the mold and then mixed together dirt, cinder, and straw to create the surrounding top.  We got very messy and learned how hard work can really pay off!
