This Saturday Sept. 4th for the Old Kapaa Town Art Walk we will be featuring Denise Dion-Scoyni. I came to know Denise through my daughters school – Denise is the art teacher at Kauai Pacific School – and a fabulous one at that. I recently started carrying her beautiful tiles in the atelier. This Saturday she will be bringing in her original paintings as well. Don’t miss this chance to meet Denise and let her know how much you love her work! Please check out her website to see more
After much ado we’ve decided to evolve the Kapaa Art Walk to the 1st Saturday of the month. Which means we’re just a few days away from a fresh new release! This week at the atelier we have Lefty playing guitar along with Kaili showing her gorgeous paintings both outside on the sidewalk. Inside we have John Howards black light paintings and farm animal tees and tanks for both the ladies and the gents. Its still 4 days away so I’m guessing a few more artists will pop up to show what they have as well as the sidewalk is open to everyone!
So come on down, eat, dance, talk, and show that you think supporting our local folks is important – its not an easy path – but its just so fun!
BIJA Jewelry will be our feature guest at this Saturday’s Old Kapaa Town Art Walk.

She will be accompanied by chef Nausheen serving a $5 bowl of aloo choley!
Nausheen takes her passion for the art of Indian Cooking and brings it to Kauai. From the kitchen of her mother and grandmother in India she has learned the elusive techniques of Indian cooking and now brings her own flare to all her dishes. Preparing an array of dishes she presents diners with some traditional favorites and unique pleasing surprises. Using only the freshest of ingredients her food touches the soul and brings the charisma of India to each bite.Food is an integral part of India’s culture, with its cuisines differing according to region. Indian cuisine is characterized by its uniquely crafted recipes using sophisticated combinations of aromatic spices and herbs fused with fresh ingredients to create a bold, zesty taste like no other.
This Saturday’s dish is called aloo choley(potatoe and garbanzo beans) made with organic garbanzo beans, and red potatoes. It is a very common dish in north India especially Mumbai. It is street food or fast food except it’s very healthy. Their will also be a tamarind chutney and a spicy chutney.
