Maui Plein Air Painting Invitational

In 2015 we introduced to the community Maui Arts League, an organization focusing on visual fine arts and what it means to us. Initially two projects are envisioned: 1) a membership art organization with the goal to collectively learn about visual arts and 2) a project to build a visual fine arts museum in West Maui.
