Dirty Cello in Concert at Volcano Art Center
Friday, September 20, at 5:30 pm at Volcano Art Center Ni‘aulani Campus in Volcano Village
Tickets: $30/$25(VAC Members)
From Iceland to Italy, and all over the U.S., San Francisco based band Dirty Cello brings the world a high energy and unique spin on blues and bluegrass. Led by vivacious cross-over cellist, Rebecca Roudman, Dirty Cello is cello like you’ve never heard before. From down home blues with a wailing cello to virtuosic stompin’ bluegrass, Dirty Cello is a band that gets your heart thumping and your toes tapping!
“Dirty Cello’s music is all over the map: funky, carnival, romantic, sexy, tangled, electric, fiercely rhythmic, and textured, and only occasionally classical.” Lou Fancher, Oakland Magazine.
“The band plays every style imaginable, and does some fantastic covers. (Their rendition of “Purple Haze” is incredible.) But what is most spectacular about them is hearing the depth of soul in Roudman’s playing—it goes beyond what most people would expect from the instrument. She plays it with so much heart, you’ll wonder why more bands don’t have a cellist.” Good Times Santa Cruz
“The group seamlessly careens from blues to bluegrass and rock in a way that really shouldn’t make sense but somehow does.” LA Times

Thursday Night at the Center with Caren Loebel Fried
Join artist/author Caren Loebel-Fried for the launch of her new book, Finding Home, A Hawaiian Petrel’s Journey, published by University of Hawai‘i Press. Caren will share the behind-the-scenes of this inspiring story, her adventures researching the endangered ‘Ua‘u, Hawaiian Petrel, in their colonies throughout the Hawaiian Islands and within Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park, and how she created the art for this book. Special guest speakers who inspired this story will present about their work with these cryptic Native seabirds.
‘Ua‘u, Hawaiian Petrels, are endemic Hawaiian seabirds that soar huge distances day and night, powered by wind. They are guided by smell and an inner magnetic map, and only touch land once a year when they meet their life mate at their burrow and together raise one chick. For 60 million years, ‘Ua‘u have made a living off the ocean, nesting in Hawai‘i far from predators. Hawaiian legends tell of seabirds darkening the sky as they returned from the sea. And their guano washed down from the mountaintops, nourishing the land and offshore coral reefs. But since the arrival of humans, ‘Ua‘u numbers have plummeted to near extinction. Finding Home, a Hawaiian Petrel’s Journey is based on the true story of these amazing seabirds and the people working to save them.
Caren’s other award-winning illustrated books include Manu, the Boy Who Loved Birds, A Perfect Day for an Albatross, and Hawaiian Legends of the Guardian Spirits. Original art for Finding Home was acquired by the Hawai‘i State Foundation for Culture and the Arts for their “Art in Public Places” program.
Other speakers at this special event include:
Charlotte Forbes Perry, retired biologist PCSU/ Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park high up Mauna Loa, will share information about the Natural History and management of the ‘Ua‘u on Hawai‘i island.
Dr. Michelle Reynolds, wildlife ecologist and certified conservation detection dog trainer and handler, will share about teaching dogs to sniff ‘Ua‘u burrows and ‘akē‘akē, Band-rumped Storm-petrels, and the cryptic seabirds she’s been trying to find since 1992.
Hawaiʻi Wildlife Center’s Linda Elliott, Founder, Center Director and President, of the first and only wildlife rehabilitation, emergency response and conservation facilities for all native birds and bats statewide. Rae Okawa, Development Director of HWC, in charge of all areas of fund development, PR, and outreach, and lead organizer of the annual “Hawaiʻi Island Festival of Birds”. Linda and Rae will share about working with injured ‘Ua‘u and restoring them to their lives in the wild.
After the presentation, Caren will sign copies of Finding Home, A Hawaiian Petrel’s Journey. Art prints and notecards from the book art will also be available for purchase.

Mokuhanga: Traditional Japanese Woodblock Printmaking
The iconic image of the ‘Great Wave’ by Hokusai or Hiroshige’s landscapes are examples of “Mokuhanga”, the term used to describe traditional Japanese woodblock printmaking. This relief printing technique differs from western woodcut methods in that an image is carved onto a piece of wood and water-based sumi ink, watercolor and nori (rice paste) are used to create the print. No toxic solvents or heavy metal press are used. Ink is applied with brushes and a simple printing pad is used to transfer the ink into the fibers of a dampened sheet of washi (Japanese hand-made paper).
You can learn how to make your own classic image with Glenn Yamanoha in the “Mokuhanga: Traditional Japanese Woodblock Printmaking.” This workshop series will consist of four sessions at Volcano Art Center’s Niaulani Campus in Volcano Village on Saturdays, November 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd, from 10am – 12:30pm.
Instructor Yamanoha will introduce the basic processes. Attendees will learn the fundamental techniques of Mokuhanga such as cutting with chisels, preparing blocks and paper, registration and printing with a baren (printing pad) in addition to design and aesthetic considerations. The cost is $150/$130 for VAC Members plus a $40 fee, inclusive of supplies. No experience is necessary for this workshop. To register or for more information please contact Volcano Art Center at 808-967-8222 or visit www.volcanoartcenter.org.

An award-winning artist, she has performed on BBC radio and television, Nashville’s Bluebird, New York’s Bitterend and Red Rock’s Amphitheatre in Colorado. “She takes you from subtle ballads to knock-you-to-your-knees blues.” – KUNC Radio
Add to this is a voice with a near four-octave range! Corridor Magazine wrote, “While her range is impressive, it’s the expression in her voice that rivets your attention and stays with you long after the show ends. Folsom’s voice pours from an inner source of honest emotion, flowing from lilting tenderness to fully liberated, unbridled release.” Her music career has spanned over 20 years.
The Boulder, Colorado native writes inspiring tales of human heartbreak, redemption and freedom. She shares those songs with exquisite intimacy in a solo performance. Folsom said performing on stage is where she feels most comfortable. “There is no place on earth that I want to be more. I’m happiest there, time flies there. It’s timeless, effortless and it brings me so much joy. My hope is always that it will bring other people joy, upliftment and awakening,” she said.
Tickets are $25 for VAC members ($30 non-members)! Ticket holders will be able to purchase beer, wine, as well as pupu. Tickets are available for sale online at www.volcanoartcenter.org, or at VAC’s Administration Office in Volcano Village.

Thursday Night at the Center with Ken Goodrich
Join Ken Goodrich on Thursday, November 14th, at 6pm, at Volcano Art Center Niaulani Campus in Volcano Village.
A Celebration of Light, Sound and Spirit features the landscapes of Hawaii Island through the eyes and heart of photographer Ken Goodrich.
He will present photos and videos from the dramatic volcanic eruptions to the exquisite beauty of the mountains, deserts, rivers and sea that we are so fortunate to call our island home.
Ken will also show stills and videos tracing his works over the years in the realm of black and white documentary photography, macro photography and dynamic abstract imagery set to music from across the world.
Photographer and videographer Ken Goodrich started his career when he received a grant to document the vanishing culture of the indigenous Otomi people of Tlacotlapilco Mexico.
Upon returning to the United States his photography expanded to include explorations of fine art photography. His work has been exhibited in all the major Hawaii Island art associations and published internationally in fine art photography magazines.
For much of his photographic career, he has focused on projection design for live events, rock and roll concerts, classical music, and dance performances.
Most often inspired by a piece of music, he creates unique marriages of sound and light for a series of immersive poetic visual imagery.
In 2007, Ken and his wife Mary founded their company, Hawaii Photo Retreat, providing photographic education and tours on the island of Hawaii.
Thursday night at the Volcano Art Center, focusing on art, Hawaiian culture, and our environment. The series is intended to inspire, and enhance your appreciation of art and life experience, while fostering community connections.

Mokuhanga: Traditional Japanese Woodblock Printmaking
The iconic image of the ‘Great Wave’ by Hokusai or Hiroshige’s landscapes are examples of “Mokuhanga”, the term used to describe traditional Japanese woodblock printmaking. This relief printing technique differs from western woodcut methods in that an image is carved onto a piece of wood and water-based sumi ink, watercolor and nori (rice paste) are used to create the print. No toxic solvents or heavy metal press are used. Ink is applied with brushes and a simple printing pad is used to transfer the ink into the fibers of a dampened sheet of washi (Japanese hand-made paper).
You can learn how to make your own classic image with Glenn Yamanoha in the “Mokuhanga: Traditional Japanese Woodblock Printmaking.” This workshop series will consist of four sessions at Volcano Art Center’s Niaulani Campus in Volcano Village on Saturdays, November 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd, from 10am – 12:30pm.
Instructor Yamanoha will introduce the basic processes. Attendees will learn the fundamental techniques of Mokuhanga such as cutting with chisels, preparing blocks and paper, registration and printing with a baren (printing pad) in addition to design and aesthetic considerations. The cost is $150/$130 for VAC Members plus a $40 fee, inclusive of supplies. No experience is necessary for this workshop. To register or for more information please contact Volcano Art Center at 808-967-8222 or visit www.volcanoartcenter.org.
Glenn Yamanoha is an established painter and printmaker residing in Volcano. He has a degree in painting from the University of Washington in Seattle, studied graphic design at Seattle Art Institute and has many years of experience teaching design, drawing and painting on the college level. As a Monbusho (Japan Government) scholar, he studied Mokuhanga in Kyoto, Japan and teaches regularly at many venues on the Big Island.

Paint Your Own Silk Scarf with Patti Pease Johnson
Big Island artist and instructor Patti Pease Johnson teaches the Paint Your Own Silk Scarf workshop on Saturday, December 14th, from 9:00am-12:30pm at Volcano Art Center.
In this workshop, you’ll paint your own 8” x 53” scarf using three colors of your choice, which will create many more colors on the silk. Pick a main color, then, choose the other two after learning about color theory. You’ll then be ready to mix your desired colors, achieved by pre-mixing the four process colors of dye (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black). Students from previous classes have been amazed by what they refer to as “happy color accidents.”
Johnson will tell you, “It’s all about playing with colors. I supply all materials and guidance, you create. The fun time is your art journey for a few hours.” Beginner and intermediate artists are welcome. Open up your creativity and challenge yourself by learning this fun technique. It’s guaranteed to change the way you look at color.
Cost is $75 and $70 for VAC members plus a $20 fee per person, inclusive of supplies.
In the final hour, students will use hot wax with the tjanting tool on Habotai silk to outline your more representational design and create a resist line for the dyes. Then you will paint and mix colors on the 10” x 10” silk artwork.
Patti Pease Johnson’s artwork can be found at galleries and shops across the State and in collections around the world. Patti has a designer’s ability to distill natural subjects into their most essential forms and to rearrange them in her paintings. Her artworks include sculpture, mobiles, fashions, soft pastels, and clay objects in abstract and expressionist styles.
