MAUI 2008 YOUTH ART SHOWCASE! And the Winner is...
Casey Arcangel, student at Kamehameha Schools Maui.

Casey was awarded $300, presented by Mayor Tavares, on April 12 at the Maui Arts and Culture Day at the Maui Mall. Now his winning entry will be sent to the Sister Cities International Art Showcase and we wish him the best of luck. His detailed and beautifully crafted pencil drawing of a Ukelele (shown below) is called "The Music of Life."

 

For the last two years, Maui County has invited its 23 Sister Cities to participate in the Young Artist Showcase. This year we were honored with 12 participants and soon their art will be posted on our website.

ALOHA to FUKUYAMA, JAPAN
MAUI COUNTY'S 23rd SISTER CITY!

On Feburary 11, 2008, Resolution No. 08-10, the Maui County City Council votes YES to adding Fukuyama, Japan as a most welcome new Maui County Sister City. Over the years, there has been ongoing interest between our county and Fukuyama. In September, 2007, Mayor Akira Hade of Fukuyama, Japan and delegation were joined by Maui Mayor Charmaine Tavares, Lt. Gov. James “Duke” Aiona and Honolulu Mayor Mufi Hannemann in the annual Maui County State Fair. 

For an official ceremonial sister cities welcome, Mayor Tavares will lead a Maui delegation to Fukuyama, Japan for their famous Rose Festival in May 2008.
