Hawaii Wood Guild will host an opening reception for its 28th annual exhibit from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday at Isaacs Art Center in Waimea.
Open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, the show runs through Feb. 22. The exhibit showcases 26 guild members presenting 62 pieces of their finest and most recent work. Entries range from small hollow vessels to large pieces of furniture — functional to whimsical — with everything in between. All works are available for purchase and 25 percent of proceeds goes to the Hawaii Preparatory Academy scholarship fund. Displayed against a backdrop of contemporary paintings by such legends as Herb Kane, Madge Tennent, Lloyd Sexton and D. Howard Hitchcock, the works of wood art are in extraordinary company.
