5th Annual Summer Fine Art Festival 

on Sunday, June 23, 2013 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. 

at the Southshore Visitors Center

Come relax in a beautiful, tropical garden and treat yourself to a fun art festival where you can meet and talk story with some of Kauai's most prolific women artists.   Patrice Pendarvis, Donia Lilly, Helen Turner, Anna Skaradzinska, Rhonda Forsberg, Leslie Hagen, Keani Andrade, Lannie Boesiger  and Marionette Taboniar will be discussing their creative process and some may even demonstrate.   Plus, gallery quality art will be for sale in a variety of styles and mediums with a portion of the proceeds supporting NTBG.

In the morning, Dr. Matthew Miller will sooth us with his relaxing guitar music from 10 a.m. to noon, and then Kauai's own "Slack Key Lady", Cindy Combs, will be performing a special concert for us from noon to 1pm.  Paradise Grinds will also be on site with their delicious plate lunches, snacks, refreshments, and shave ice. 

The Southshore Visitors Center is located across from Spouting Horn at 4425 Lawa‘i Rd, Po‘ipu.  For more info call the Center at 742-2433.
