This summers art program is beginning to look like the community education program we used to have in Colville. Students pay a $27 membership fee and then attend a lesson for $2/lesson.
Today, for example, hula students learned the 13 letters of the Hawaiian alphabet and the pronunciation of the letters. They also learned to sing the first verse of Pearly Shells in the Hawaiian language. Three hula steps, the kahalo, ka'o and ami were practiced until legs were burning and everyone was breathing hard. Adding the hand interpretation to the steps and words was the final mind challenging piece.
Hula meets Thursday mornings in the CJH Annex building at 10:30 through August 13.
Later in the afternoon, from 3:30-5:30 students worked in Acrylic paints to express their ideas regarding how they feel about paint.
