THE ARTS

Student’s food drive rewards donors with art

While it might be true that giving is its own reward, Punahou School student Dee Mosher would like to offer something in return: a gift of art for a gift of food.

The high-school senior has organized a canned-goods drive for the Hawaii Foodbank. At the same time, he's had student art pieces printed on note cards. Tomorrow through Nov. 25, exchange a donation of food for note cards at Punahou's Kirsch Gallery, Honolulu Pet Clinic or Frame-Arts Hawaii in town; Tom Terrifics design firm in Manoa; or on the North Shore, Cafe Haleiwa or the Bonzer Front surf shop.

Mosher has also produced a video, "Art Work for Food," explaining local and global hunger for a young audience, on view as part of an art exhibition, "Mosher Family & Friends," at the Kirsch Gallery through the 25th. The exhibit features work by Mosher; his parents, Hugh and Melissa Kim Mosher; and others. A reception will be held from 3:30 to 5 p.m. tomorrow.

Call 943-3675.
