"The Sea Our Home" 2009 art contest
In the fall of 2009, the Education Department at Sea Life Park Hawai'i organized an art contest for students in grades 1 through 6. The response was overwhelming: we received over 480 submissions and 77 teachers decided to enter. Ms. Tammy Yee, illustrator and writer of children's books, graciously donated her time to be part of the judging process.
To celebrate the success of our art contest, we displayed the winning artwork at Children and Youth Day on October 4th in Downtown Honolulu. The same artwork as well as many other entires were displayed at Kahala mall in the last two weeks of October. The Education Department's staff and volunteers represented the park at the two craft events on October 25th and October 31st (image left).
