The Society for Kona’s Education & Art (SKEA) has been serving the South Kona area for over 30 years with events and programs that contribute to a vibrant community. The organization occupies two historic buildings in Honaunau that was once the Japanese Language School. This site provides plenty of space for events such as Music on the Lawn, the Mauka Talent Show, the Annual Membership Meeting, Quilt Show, lectures, and small musical events. A primary focus of the organization are two children’s programs: the Art of Learning, an innovative arts education program in the public schools; and Art Camps, week-long day camps during the school breaks that immerse students in a variety of art mediums. SKEA is proud of its long partnership with the Kona Brewers’ Festival and we are honored to be a grantee again this year. Funds will be used for the Art of Learning in the South Kona schools and for the 2014 Spring and Summer Art Camps.
