On May 9th, we were pleased to welcome guest speaker, Stephan Jost, the new director at the Honolulu Academy of Arts. Jost was the former director at Vermont's Shelburne Museum and will be bringing his enthusiasm and ideas to revitalize Hawaii's premier museum. Among the changes that Jost will oversee is the merger of the Academy with The Contemporary Museum. Be inspired at the Honolulu Academy of Arts.
$10,000 Weinberg Donation to the Alliance for Drama Education
There are few things as rewarding as a job well done, or in our case, two jobs well done. Thanks to the assistance of the Downtown Club, hands-on efforts from T-shirt Theater's George Kon and his family, and a hearty group of Sunrisers, we weeded, painted and pounded at Keiki O Ka Aina Preschool to earn $10,000 from the Weinberg Foundation to donate to the Alliance for Drama Education's T-shirt Theater at Farrington High School. A big mahalo to Nolan Pong, Jan Taketa and Charlie DuBoyce for coordinating our Weinberg effort!
Club News
After lively bidding, PP Jerry Hofwolt (and Wally) won two rounds of golf at Koolina donated by Ken Marcus. Proceeds will benefit our club's Japan relief efforts. As always, we were happy to see new and familiar faces. Aloha to Liz Kane, AG Central Oahu, and Volkmar Kunereth, guest of President Elect Amin Leiman.
