It seems the helpful resources won't stop coming in, which proves to me what a vibrant, and active community we live in! We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place, with so many talented and diverse people to occupy it. I wanted to fill you in on some of the fun and interesting things I have discovered recently, in case you've missed them on the homeschool and community resources pages. Many of them are free or low cost, and for all ages. Here we go!
The Volcano School of Arts and Sciences is doing their Spring musical next Thursday evening, March 7th, at 6pm. Located at the KMC Theatre in Hawaii Volcanoes National park. It's free of cost and a wonderful opportunity to expose our kids to the arts! Contact the school for more info.
Puna Happenings. This is a web page dedicated to posting the latest events, classes, and workshops in Puna! Everything from Capoeira, to African Drumming, to Naturopathic Talk-Story, to Art Shows, are listed here.
