Art, Music and ALOHA!!

Art by Donna Sellers - "Old Town Eureka Arts Alive"

Before retiring to the Big Island and applying for our "Punatic" citizenship, for 22 years we lived in Humboldt County's Victorian seaport -- Eureka, growing our gallery and art businesses.  We were there for the very first "Arts Alive" as well as the first Jazz Festival.




Many Hands Gallery is still located on the main corner (building is pictured above on the left.) We were thrilled to watch the revitalization of Eureka's Old Town district -- due in part to the participation of the community in the monthly "Arts Alive."

Now, we are here in charming Pahoa where the sidewalks are wooden and the amenities are stellar.  Rather than owning a gallery, we are enjoying retirement and still very much involved in creating art, tending our wild and wonderful one acre forest/jungle, and our three corgi dogs. 

We are encouraging our neighbors and friends to participate in Pahoa's VERY FIRST "Music and Art Walk" which will be the second Saturday of each month.


UPDATE:  We just got back from a fun few hours.  Great evening weather, music in front of all the businesses and restaurants, very nice selection of local art, shops and restaurants all open and busy.  We ran into lots of people we knew and a good time was had by all. 

MAHALO to organizers, artists, musicians and Pahoa Village merchants.
