Virtual Sketchbook: Donkey Mill Art Center, Holualoa, Hawaii Island
Hawaii Island’s Donkey Mill Art Center, located in the charming hillside town of Holualoa just a few miles above Kailua-Kona Village, is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing art education and experiences to people of all ages and abilities from keiki (children) to Kupuna (seniors). Activities include hands-on classes, exhibitions and events featuring contemporary visual arts, crafts, fine art and culture. During this time of social distancing the facility is currently closed, however, the art continues!
Its Virtual Sketchbook Club invites you to share a photo from your art studio or your sketchbook each week and tag Donkey Mill Art Center on Facebook. Don’t be shy, art is not judgmental!

I enjoy watching your television show and I love visiting Hawaii.
What is the name of that recurring Ukulele song on your show.
It sounds like a song sung by the Four Lads or Four Freshmen of the 1960s,
“Little Fishes in the Sea” or something like that…..
I should know the name of that tune since I use to be in radio as a disc jockey
before retiring. Also, the wife and have taken many 4-day cruises out of
San Francisco….to visit Hawaii.
Thanks,
Aloha,
Tony (Tone)
