The Art Committee cordially invites you to the opening of the Hawaiian Art Show, which will be featured on the cafeteria wall next to UW Tower Café. Folks are invited to the reception, which will be Monday, January 13, from 1:15 to 2:00 pm. The art show is dedicated to the Hui Hoaloha Ulana University of Washington Hawaii Club, and their dancers have graciously agreed to come and perform some hula dances for this dedication. The hula performance will begin at 1:30 sharp.
This show features work by artist, Eugene Savage, who illustrated dinner menus for the S.S. Lurline (Matson Cruise Lines) during the 1950s. These pieces are actual menus from an ocean voyage cruise taken by one of Audrey Walker’s family members in 1955 (who had the foresight to keep the menus and take them to his berth on a daily basis). A second collection of art is by Guy Buffet (p**n. Gee Boofay), who lives part time on the Island of Maui. Last but not least, there is one large piece by famous Hawaiian artist, Pegge Hopper.
Please come to enjoy the art show, the hula dancers, and aloha spirit. The performance starts at 1:30 sharp!
Me ke aloha pumehana! Please come! (E komo mai!)
