COURTESY PHOTOS/SPECIAL TO WEST HAWAII TODAY Calls for entry Hawaii Nei 2017 seeks artists The Three Mountain Alliance, Natural Area Reserves System and Wailoa Center announces a call to artists for Hawaii Nei 2017, a juried art exhibition celebrating the native flora and fauna of Hawaii Island. Amateur and professional artists of all ages are invited to submit works celebrating the native plants, animals and habitats of our beloved island, our Hawaii Nei. Artwork will be displayed at the Wailoa Center from Nov. 3 to Dec. 15. All Hawaii Island residents are eligible to participate. All submissions must be original, created in the past two years, and have not been previously shown in any other exhibition, gallery or website. Artwork in any medium or combination of media is welcome. Each year, Hawaii Nei selects a featured category to highlight a special species, theme, or event. While the featured category is meant to help inspire artist, artwork is not limited strictly to the featured category. The 2017 featured category is Kumulaau, also known as trees. This year, artists can explore the foundation of native forests on Hawaii Island. Trees are a crucial component of a healthy watershed and a helpful collector of our precious water resource. They are often referred to as our kumu and even kupuna of the forest, being the base or trunk for multitudinous life but also our teachers and grandparents. Native species found only on other islands will not be accepted. All species found from ridge to reef on the island are acceptable. Subjects from beyond the reef, including the deep ocean, will not be accepted. Artwork made from native species is strongly discouraged. All artwork must be registered online by Oct. 19 at www. hawaiineiartcontest.org.
