The 2026 Hawaii Watercolor Society Members’ Show, entitled “99% Transparent” refers to the requirement that the paintings be executed with 99% transparent watercolor paints. The show features 77 works by 43 member artists. The juror for the show is Sterling Edwards, an internationally renowned watermedia master artist, instructor, mentor, and author. Sterling began a second career in 1993 to pursue his passion for painting as a visual and interpretive artist. Having studied art since the age of twelve, he developed a unique and expressive style of painting that has since gained international acclaim and the respect of his peers, students, art collectors, and designers.The exhibition also features artwork from 11 notable Hawai'i glass artists from Glass Fusion Hawaiʻi exhibiting approximately 35 pieces of glass art. The inclusion of glass artwork complements the luminosity of transparent watercolor paintings.
Opening Reception for the exhibition is Friday, March 6, 5-8 PM with an Awards Presentation. Closing Reception will occur on Saturday, March 28, 4-6 PM with Artist talks and presentation of the People's Choice Award.The aim of the Hawai'i Watercolor Society is to nurture and stimulate interest in watermedia through education, exhibits, and collaboration with other organizations, associations and individuals.
Come on over and join the fun—play Hanafuda with your fellow community members! We’re excited to let you know that after a summer break, we’re back with this program. We have several Hanafuda decks available during the event, on a first-come, first-served basis, for anyone eager to play. It’s a great chance to meet new friends, challenge yourself, and just have a good time! If you’ve learned how to play Hanafuda from Helen Nakano and her Sensei, now’s your moment to practice those skills in a friendly game.
This will be a relaxed, self-directed play session—no formal instructions will be provided. However, we’ll have instruction sheets available for those interested in learning more about this wonderful game. Everyone, no matter your experience level, is welcome to join! Just a quick note: young children should be accompanied by an adult. For more info, feel free to contact us at (808) 733-8422 or ask at the Kaimukī Public Library Adult Reference Desk.
