Pamela's Open Studio
in Pukalani


You're invited to my studio in Pukalani.  I'll be holding open studio Sat and Sun, February 12 and 13 from 10AM to 6PM.  There is no formal schedule of events, although I'll be demonstrating throughout the weekend.  We'll have some pupus and you can experience my working environment and maybe pick up some art for the studio/collector discount if you see something you love.
You can also try "Paint Like Pam" hands on experience if you're drawn to that.  And, since I share my studio with my husband, you'll see his digs too and gain some insight into his process.  See you there!
Aloha, Friends! 

Welcome to the art island.  Many many wonderful art events are coming up on Maui so we thought we'd put a few of them in one place for you.  Due to all the activity in the art world, we have elected to forgo the annual Valentines show.  A little sad, but it just makes sense this year.  Click on the links below for full (and authorized) information on some really exciting art events. 

Currently on display in the gallery area we have house artists: Stephanie Clifton,  Peter V Fisher, Larry Lovett and Pamela Neswald, and now representing jewelery by Stephanie of Maui.

If you're looking to supply your studio, take a moment to scroll down and investigate our BYOBag Sale.
